ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone, I can’t find this information anywhere. Are Fly-Thrus/Transits operating as normal through KL airport? I have a 6 hour transit/layover in KL March 24. I go from the Jakarta, Indonesia airport -> KL Malaysia. (6 hour layover). KL -> Krabi, Thailand. I received an email from AirAsia about a refund / change of flight option, but no answer if layovers/transits are operating as normal through KL airport. Thank you kindly!!!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquired about the status of fly-thrus/transits at KL airport during their 6-hour layover, as they were uncertain due to an email from AirAsia regarding a flight change. Responses indicated that as long as travelers do not cross immigration, transit areas should be functional.

Thanks Julie. I’m not entering Malaysia, just in the airport. But you’re right, may be better to just book whole new flight without a layover in Malaysia.

As long as you do not cross over immigration, those areas are still open.
