Short Flight help
Hi,
I will be traveling with the fam in Spring of this year. I need to book a short haul flight from SIN to KL (RT) and per google flights, there are some cheap flights. The price varies and I was wondering if they all include luggages or I have to pay out of pocket. I will have at least 2 piece of luggage and per 2 mini strollers since my origin is from the U.S
I am booking SIN to KL as a separate flight. Any recommendation on the flights I should take? Should I just go with JetStar or AirAsia since its so cheap ($40 to $50 USD)
Two adult, Two child (4 & 6)
JetStar
AirAsia
TigerAir
Malaysia
Singapore Air
Thanks

SQ & MH generally include some baggage allowance, but you must verify before booking to confirm, and the others are LLCs which often do not include a checked baggage allowance. Sometimes the LLCs can still be cheaper with the luggage fees but it all depends on the different between what a mainline airline such as SQ or MH and what the LLCs are charging.

never flown Jetstar or AirAsia. Are they any good?
Plus, i was able to find MH Flight for $75 RT. Should I just go with that?
At first, I was thinking SQ but if the flights with MH or other brand is clean/safe, I rather save a few pennies

If it's $40-50 + luggage fees on an LCC and $75 on MH with luggage I'd go MH. It'll be on a 737, probably, for a short hop and they have multiple flights per day if things do go south.

I flew AirAsia last year from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap. The flight was actually pretty good, new planes, they charge for everything but that is ok with me.
