Hi everyone!
Welcome to my Flight Report. In this report, I want to share about my trip to Kuala Lumpur with Lion Air. I decided to choose Lion Air because it was the cheapest price plus free 20kg baggage compared to other low cost airlines with the same route.

I decided to go to the airport at 05:00 and arrived at around 06:30 by using taxi. Then, I went inside the terminal building. Here are the photos of Juanda Airport Terminal 2 first floor.

After passed some shops, I proceeded to the check-in counter. Before you can enter the check-in area, you have to show your boarding pass or itinerary to the security officer, then you can proceed to the check-in counter.

I went to the Lion Group check-in counter to collect my boarding pass.

After I got my boarding pass, I went upstairs to go to the immigration and boarding gate which is on the second floor.



After clearing the immigration,I went to the boarding gate.

    The old-school looking seats look out of place with the modern Boeing Sky Interior cabin, haha. At least they look comfortable and not too thin--though that makes legroom tighter.

    Would have been interested in reading about the Buy-on-board food options, or was there none?

    Thanks for sharing
