The Trip to Perth


2 days after I just went home from Tokyo, my dad and I went on another trip to Perth. The goal was to survey the universities in the city and help find out how to apply there as an international student. The trip to Perth would be on AirAsia, with the routing of CGK-KUL then a connecting flight to PER on AirAsia X.


At CGK

We arrived at Terminal 2F. After Terminal 3 opened, the original international Terminal 2D and 2E became domestic, while 2F was converted to international, but only for LCCs.

The pre-security interior hasn't changed much

After going through security, we end up at the international check in. The turqoise desks indicate that this was once Garuda's domestic terminal.

Terminal 1 and 2 gates are seperated in these small boxes with this cool chandelier thing inside

Terminal 2F also had a bit of a renovation, where they added this hallway that connects all the gates

Conclusion

Indonesia AirAsia: As an LCC, AirAsia might not have much in terms of entertainment and food, but they do have very good seats and ok-ish fares
CGK: Since it was morning, Terminal 2F at CGK was still empty so it was very efficient
KUL: The airport was clean, carpeted and very fast for connecting flights

  • I've enjoyed the few flights I've done on AirAsia. I agree that the seats are comfortable, especially since the cushioning is nice and thick, which is a nice change from the hard ironing board slimline seats on most LCCs. The problem is that the thickness of the seats makes the legroom tight for anyone over 1m75, but I guess that's what the Hot Seats are for. I also really like the pre-order hot meals on AirAsia. Will be interesting to see the experience on the AirAsia X sector.

    Thanks for sharing!
