CHENNAI, India -- CHENNAI, 25 APRIL – The AirAsia Group will move all of its operations in the current LCC Terminal (LCCT) in Sepang to the highly-anticipated klia2 on Friday, 9th May 2014.
All scheduled departures from the LCCT on Thursday, 8th May 2014 will operate as per normal, and all guests with bookings departing Kuala Lumpur on that day are advised to still go to the LCCT to board their flights.
All AirAsia X (D7) flights will still be departing from and arriving at LCCT on 8th May 2014, including these flights departing early morning of 9th May 2014:
D7 236 to Perth - Departure time:0005 (12:05 AM)
D7 532 to Osaka – Departure time: 0100 (1:00 AM)
D7 512 to Busan – Departure time 0115 (1:15AM)
D7 170 to Jeddah – Departure time 0235 (2:35AM)
However, there are a number of AirAsia (AK) flights which will be arriving at the new klia2 directly on 8th May instead of LCCT. We would like to advise all our guests to take note of this change of arrival terminal. (Please refer to the table below)
All affected guests will be informed via email and SMS about this change of airport and guests are able to contact AirAsia through these channels for further enquiries:

2. Online form athttp://www.airasia.com/my/en/e-form.page
3. Live Chat (available via AskAirAsia after login using the AirAsia member ID).
With a larger build-up area, and a brand new experience, AirAsia baggage-drop counters will be open 3 hours (180mins) before scheduled departure time, and will close 1 hour (60mins) before scheduled departure timefor both international & domestic flights to ensure that all guests have ample time to familiarise themselves with the new environment and get to their departure gates on time. AirAsia strongly encourage all guests to conduct self check-in via web or mobile before arriving at the airport.
All immigration and security counters will still be operational in the current LCCT from 2nd – 8th May 2014, therefore travellers need not worry about any inconvenience while going through the LCCT during the transition period.
