Baggage, seats and classes on the Penang to Kuala Lumpur flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Penang to Kuala Lumpur. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you

Flying with children, families and groups from Penang to Kuala Lumpur

Three things to know about the flight from Penang to Kuala Lumpur with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and normally a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Tell us the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.

Things to do in Kuala Lumpur when you land

Putrajaya's mosque and bridges, the Petronas Twin Towers and Skybridge, Batu Caves, KL Tower and Merdeka Square and the Sultan Abdul Samad Building are what most travellers come to Kuala Lumpur for. Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia, a skyline of the Petronas Towers and the KL Tower over Bukit Bintang and the old colonial quarter; Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) lies about 55 km south at Sepang, with the KLIA Ekspres train and the North-South Expressway linking it to the city. Eat roti canai and teh tarik at a mamak, char kway teow and banana-leaf rice in Brickfields while you are there.

Best time to fly from Penang to Kuala Lumpur

KL is hot and humid year-round with two wetter periods around April-May and October-December; the expressway from the airport is quick outside the weekday evening rush into the city. On the flight from Penang to Kuala Lumpur, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Kuala Lumpur to Penang

The Kuala Lumpur to Penang flight is the same route in reverse, about 1 hour. Haqqi Tours arranges the return ticket in the same conversation; if you are not yet sure of the return date, we can book a flexible outbound or wait, and explain which is cheaper.

How much is a flight from Penang to Kuala Lumpur?

"How much is the Penang to Kuala Lumpur flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours offers the current cost for your date in a few minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Penang to Kuala Lumpur flight is frequently not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Penang to Kuala Lumpur: how to pay less

A cheap Penang to Kuala Lumpur flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we check for you:

• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are usually cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
• Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we verify

We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Penang to Kuala Lumpur?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back in the WhatsApp chat with the booking ready to confirm.
