Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's capital, is a modern, multicultural city best known for the Petronas Twin Towers, its street food and its role as a major Southeast Asian hub. A Plus Travel compares fares from UK airports to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL), for holidays, family visits and onward travel across Asia.
Direct flights operate from London and take around 13 hours. One-stop options through Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Istanbul or Singapore are often cheaper and are the usual choice from Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow, taking roughly 15 to 20 hours. KUL is about 50 km south of the city, and the KLIA Ekspres train reaches KL Sentral in around 30 minutes.
Kuala Lumpur is hot and humid all year, with afternoon showers likely in most months. June to August is generally the driest period, and November to February is wetter but still popular.
See the Petronas Towers and KLCC Park, visit Batu Caves, eat at Jalan Alor, explore Chinatown and Little India, or take day trips to Malacca and the Genting and Cameron Highlands. Kuala Lumpur is also a convenient base for flights to Penang, Langkawi, Kota Kinabalu and Bali.
UK passport holders can currently stay in Malaysia for up to 90 days without a visa, and travellers must complete the Malaysia Digital Arrival Card online before arrival. The currency is the Malaysian ringgit. We confirm entry requirements when we quote.
