Cheap Flights from Chennai to Kuala Lumpur Starting at $93

Chennai International Airport (MAA) serves as Tamil Nadu’s primary gateway and a major international hub for southern India, handling long-haul carriers alongside strong domestic connectivity. It’s commonly used by full-service airlines and a number of regional and low-cost operators, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on carriers and timing. The airport sits about 15–20 km from downtown Chennai; taxis and app-cabs usually take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic, while suburban trains and airport buses can take 45–75 minutes with lower fares. Pros: good international connections and extensive ground transport; cons: rush-hour congestion and occasional waits at immigration or security.

Kuala Lumpur is primarily served by Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL), a large international hub handling full-service carriers and many long-haul flights, and Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB) in Subang, which usually caters to turboprops, regional services and some turboprop/charter operators. KUL sits about 45–60 minutes from the city center by car depending on traffic and is linked by the KLIA Ekspres rail (around 28–35 minutes, typically higher fare) and KLIA Transit or taxis and buses that can be cheaper but slower. Subang is closer—roughly 25–40 minutes to central Kuala Lumpur—and can be reached by taxi or shuttle; public rail connections are more limited. KUL is often viewed as the international, full-service gateway with wide amenities and several airline lounges, while Subang can be a budget-conscious or regional option with simpler facilities and quicker access for some suburbs. Pros: KUL has frequent services and ample connections; Subang can save time for nearby neighborhoods. Cons: KUL can involve longer transfers and variable road congestion; Subang offers fewer long-haul choices and less public-transport frequency.
