When booking this flight we initally looked at Air Asia, Malaysia's low cost carrier. But for some reason this particular flight on Malaysian Airlines was a very reasonable all-inclusive $35 each, so we booked this instead.
The flight from Kuala Lumpur to Kota Kinabalu was about 1,000 miles / 1,600 kilometres, or just over 2 hours flight time.
I was a little thirsty, so grabbed a can of 'Kickapoo' from the vending machine for 1 ringgit.
A couple of the apparently '
lost property' 747's on the tarmac. Back in January, Kuala Lumpur airport placed an advert in the local newspaper asking for help for identifying the owner of these abandoned planes.
Reading the inflight magazine just after boarding. I had previously done the photography for a
couple of
articles for this magazine, but it was my first time seeing the magazine itself so it was a bit of a thrill.
Dinner of chicken and rice with some apple juice.
