Hello, were you able to comfortably fit the Umrah into your schedule?
I'm looking at a KUL > JED > ATH route, which has a 7hr 40min layover (between 03:20 and 11:00 local time in Jeddah). but doubt I'll be able to fit this in.
Also, I'm considering a separate ticket KLM flight from ATH to BHX, which leaves 3hrs 45 mins after the SV flight lands in ATH. This is probably tight, so it would be really good if the team in KUL where able to interline check through my luggage to BHX via that (separate ticket) KLM flight.
