Reached KL Airport on a Sat early morning after 12 hours flight. Feeling groggy due to lack of sleep despite the fact of flying in a new A380. Immigration line for Visitors were long but adequate. For Malaysian there are special automatic lanes with machines to scan their passports. But today the machines seems to have taken a break as I overheard the immigration officer told the local that machines were on "holiday" but not to the bemusement of the travelers.
Waiting time for luggage was displayed on screen, a plus in my book! Custom clearance is another plus, not much hassle and friendly smile.
Coming out from the gate was a bit overwhelming with many people waiting behind retainers. Rather difficult to see any sign-ages. Worked my way through the crowd but instead greeted by some not so decent looking guys asking "taxi?" "KL?". My hunch told me this is not legal activities. Such a big and nice airport but marred by this sort of activities. There were plenty of armed policemen standing in groups in a corner and not seems to be marching compared to other international airport. However I still felt safe seeing any armed personnel.
