complete the journey in 28 min. At the busiest times (5AM-9AM and 4PM-10PM), there is one train every 15 min; otherwise they run every 20 min. KLIA Transit trains (also RM35 one way) get to the airport in 36 min and stop at Salak Tinggi, Putrajaya, and Bandar Tasik Selatan en route. Infuriatingly, Transit and Ekspres tickets are not interchangeable and the trains leave from different parts of both the airport and KL Sentral--make sure you don't get them mixed up.

From KL Sentral, the first train (a transit) leaves at 4.33AM; the last (also a transit) is at 1.03AM. From the airport, the first train (an express) leaves at 5.00AM; the last (a transit) leaves at 1.03AM. If taking a late night ekspres train from the airport, there may be no ticket sales available: buy the ticket when you arrive in KL Sentral.

If flying Malaysia, Emirates, Cathay or Royal Brunei and taking either an Expres or a Transit train to the airport, you can check in your baggage at the Kuala Lumpur City Air Terminal in KL Sentral. See "Get around" section below on how to get to/away from KL Sentral.

•    The KTM Komuter station Nilai (1hr, RM5 from KL) has frequent connecting buses to KLIA operated by Airport Coach and Sepang Omnibus (1.5hr, RM3.50). This is the cheapest option to the main terminal but takes much longer than the direct train or bus (allow 3hr for the whole journey).

By bus

•    Airport Coach runs a one hourly express bus between KL Sentral and KLIA from 5AM to 10.30PM from Sentral, and 6.30AM to 12.30AM from KLIA. RM10 one way, or RM18 return.

•    Star Shuttle bus runs from KLIA to Kota Raya and Pudu Raya (both are near the Chinatown), RM12.50 one way.

•    Sepang Omnibus runs local bus services directly to Seremban in Negeri Sembilan, Banting in Selangor and Sepang town where you can get connecting buses to/from Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan. The
