To kick off the wiki on the new main lounge thread I added a brief overview of the MH lounges at KLIA.
I invite others to add relevant info on location, access requirements and opening hours.
Globalist
All the Malaysia Airlines lounges at KL International Airport (KLIA) have now been reopened after renovations.
Malaysia Airlines has 3 lounges at KLIA.
The KLIA Domestic Golden Lounge.
Located in the domestic terminal for domestic departures, towards the 'A' gates. Open 5am-12am.
The KLIA Regional Golden Lounge
This lounge is located in the main terminal building for international departures. Open 5am-12am.
To access it use the escalator near the Aerotrain platform between the G and H pier.
This lounge is airside and accessible for international departures only,
The International Golden Lounge at Satellite KLIA
This is the largest lounge, and is located in the Satellite Building on the 2nd floor above the Aerotrain platform there. Open 24hrs.
It features a Business class section and a separate 'Platinum' area + dining room for Enrich Platinum, OWEs & MH Business Suites passengers. (There is also a small First Class Suite area on the Platinum side for MH Business Suites passengers.)
This lounge is airside and only accessible by passengers allowed into the international zone.
[This perk may have been stopped as of 1 March 2024, even if the FAQ is not updated and still shows the earlier access rights; see this post.]
This lounge may also be used as an arrivals lounge by passengers arriving on MH flights who either flew MH Business Suites / Business or hold Enrich Platinum / Gold status (not applicableto OWE / OWS).
I invite others to add relevant info on location, access requirements and opening hours.

Malaysia Golden Lounges at KLIA (Post Renovations)

this seems to be inconsistent, because a few weeks ago (March 18), the champagne was the usual De Venoge Cordon Bleu. The champagne was Drappier Carte d'Or in early January... and De Venoge in late December.

Also there's a problem of me being able to upload photos from my phone. I don't know why.

Had the nasi lemak this week and boy was the sambal pungent! Too much demented (typo: fermented) shrimp paste (belacan) that didn’t blend well with the chilli...
And they served the same dish in flight. After the meal service, the entire cabin smelled like there was a toilet leak onboard!

Can someone share the correct way to upload pics on FT?
From 3-6pm, are those the only items available?
i’d prefer main course items like beef or lamb etc.
if so, I’m gonna book FY to SIN / XSP instead.

I tried real hard uploading the pix, then had my tech-savvier travel mate try...nothing.
Yesterday’s afternoon menu still looks like nldogbert’s #170 post.
Just the Laksa had changed to a Penang Asam Laksa.
There was also a Won Ton noodle soup on the menu.
Both of which you could have had in MH’s Business Lounge.
Champagne was still (or again) de Venoge.
Food spread was very limited in the Flounge.
Petit CX lounge is missing its noodle bar. No Champagne, either.
I grabbed an Economist and had canned green tea instead.
No need to fly via KUL for the lounge experience for sure.

Additionally, have anyone noticed how cheap and ridiculous the Royal Selangor Displays are (which is almost guaranteed to be advertising, sponsored by Royal Selangor)? I mean it would have looked nice on a stand and good lighting, but with the way the are displaying it inside a protective glass box in an 90s-esque jewellery store manner just looks cheap.
I thought they were trying to do away with the cheap looking brand advertising in the lounges after the renovation.
