Downtown KLIA
Not sure if this has changed but a few years back the taxi's still had an airport surcharge of RM25 (?) for the short ride, and Grab is RM45 ... per way !
If I had more than 2 hours and wanted a walk and bite, KLIA2 would be a more convenient bet and a shorter train ride away. The Mamak at Bus Level in KLIA2 is 24h and pretty good.
I forgot to mention i roll around using my own vehicle that why I had not issue going to downtown klia for quick bite.
Ah, you can forget about the taxi to be honest where they just slaughterer everyone who took the cab. I once charged RM50 from KLIA to Sepang Circuit for GT Race few years ago.
Likewise grab is rate is based on algorithm too. They had to take some "Queue" when they show up in KLIA which made them wait. Its a pity KLIA dont provide any bus transportation to Downtown KLIA while they do provide for Mitsui which is so so to be honest.
KLIA2 is not a bad choice but then again it is quite crowded at peak times.
I always go for Maggi Goreng at centre part of lowest level of the Main Terminal Bulding (it is a random food stall in the middle). Its a pity it was closed down 2 years ago. Even those who work there give top recommendation for that area.
