Kuala Lumpur is served primarily by Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL), the country’s main international hub handling most long‑haul and full‑service carriers, and the smaller Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah/ Subang (SZB) which can be used for some turboprop, private and regional services. KUL sits about 45–60 minutes from the city center by car depending on traffic and typically connects by express train (KLIA Ekspres ~28 minutes), airport buses and taxis; fares can range from modest bus prices to mid‑range taxi/ride fares and higher airport train tickets. SZB is closer (roughly 20–30 minutes) and may be more convenient for regional or low‑cost options. Pros: wide international connectivity and modern facilities at KUL; cons: distance from downtown and occasional congestion during peak times.
