Last weekend, I took a trip up north to Kuala Lumpur, just to grab some good food as well as making good of the Firefly discounted tickets on their relaunched flights to Singapore's secondary airport, Seletar Airport, after some political bickering between Singapore and Malaysia (you can google for more details if interested).
Flight up was via Scoot as it was offering the lowest fares compared to other airlines departing on a Saturday morning. Check-in done online and boarding pass printed at home.
With no check-in bags, it was direct through immigration and to The Green Market for a complimentary meal with my Priority Pass. It was a very generous serving of good Japanese cuisine for breakfast.
Headed to the gate, which was a bus gate.
Boarding had just commenced, and we were onto the first bus to the aircraft.

Headed into the city via the very convenient KLIA Express train, and had lunch at Sin Kee restaurant near KL Sentral.
