Kuala Lumpur is primarily served by Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL), the nation’s main international hub that handles long-haul and regional carriers including full-service and many low-cost airlines; it can be perceived as mid-range to affordable depending on season and carrier. KUL sits about 45–55 km south of the city center in Sepang, with the KLIA Ekspres taking around 28 minutes to the central KL Sentral station (fares usually in the mid-range), while airport buses and taxis take 45–70 minutes depending on traffic and price. Pros: extensive international connections and modern facilities; cons: distance from central Kuala Lumpur and occasional traffic delays for road transfers. Kuala Lumpur also has Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB, often called Subang), which functions more as a domestic and regional terminal with a growing share of turboprop and business-jet operations and a limited number of short-haul scheduled carriers. Subang is much closer to downtown—roughly 20 km—so road transfers can be as quick as 20–35 minutes by taxi or ride-hail, with modest fares; public bus options are available but less frequent. Pros: proximity and convenience for domestic or business travelers; cons: fewer long-haul options and smaller passenger amenities compared with the main international airport.

Brisbane Airport (BNE) is the city’s primary international gateway and a regional hub for full-service carriers as well as several low-cost airlines, so you’ll see a mix of Qantas, Virgin Australia, and budget operators. Located about 17 km northeast of the CBD, it’s typically a 20–30 minute drive without heavy traffic; the Airtrain connects terminals to the city in roughly 20 minutes with fares usually in the mid-range for airport rail services, while taxis and rideshares can cost more depending on traffic. The airport offers full-service facilities, lounges and frequent international connections, but can be busy at peak times and transfer between terminals may add time.
