As this airport has been the talk of the year, and after many delays in opening, it finally opened its doors to the public on 2nd May 2014 and is servicing all the budget airlines in the region, namely AirAsia.

The closure of the old budget terminal and arriving at a brand new one where it gave me a chance to explore the airport to see what was the hype all about. I admit I was utterly impressed by everything there.
As a Malaysian, it is easy to find fault with a lot of things, but as a seasoned traveler, I do not look for those, instead, I channel my observations to the facilities, structure, amenities and overall layout and design.

Stepping onto the much-debated aerobridge, I know that this was the budget terminal of the future and many awards are going to be won by the KLIA2.
Once inside, it brought me into a whole new world of shopping, as if I was in a metropolis of some sort. It felt like I was in another country.
Security on Segways zoomed pass while airport staff with ‘Ask Me’ stood at all possible corners of the airport ready to assist anyone in need. Very very impressive.
There must be over hundreds of shops throughout the entire airport complex ranging from fast food, restaurants, consumer goods, and even a Toys-R-Us and grocery supermarket!

Brand new conveyor belts spun bags around the size of a badminton court while at least the luggage of four to five flights can be accommodated in one baggage carousel.
The international and domestic sections are divided by a glass partition where you can see one another.
Outside, I was greeted by a huge shopping mall complex. Standing there for the first time, I was in awe.
Shops to the left and right, thousands of travelers moving about in all directions, yes, this was like something out of a movie.
Personally, I spent a good three hours exploring the entire place checking out the shopping mall right to the outdoor viewing deck area.

Not to worry, this airport is here to stay for a very long time. Oh, if you’re a coffee lover, you are in for a surprise as there must be at least 6 types of coffee outlets there including 3 Starbucks outlets.
And if you are rushing home to cook dinner after a flight, there is a Jaya Grocer Supermarket as you exit the arrival hall so you can do your grocery shopping before heading home.
Conclusion
In the klia2 shopping mall, there are almost all kinds of shops available if you need to buy something too. And for food, there is an abundance available. There is even a vegetarian cafe there too.
For those planning to take a taxi from the new LCCT, please do take some time to read my caution about taking a taxi from klia2.
