Top tips for finding cheap flights to Malaysia

  • One of the most popular destinations in Malaysia for those traveling from the New York area is to fly to the city of Kuala Lumpur. On this route, the one-stop offerings from Singapore Airlines traveling to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) with a layover at Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) and departing from Newark International Airport (EWR) are a very popular option.
  • For those looking for a cheaper way to travel to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, consider the one-stop flights departing from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) aboard a combination of Korean Air and Malaysia Airlines that offer a substantial discount on the one-stop offerings.
  • For travelers looking for a quiet and convenient place to wait for their flights to Malaysia from John F. Kennedy International Airport, you will be happy to learn that Lufthansa, Air France, Korean Air, and Delta Airlines all offer airline lounges at this airport.

This lot offers a substantial discount on parking rates compared to lots at the airport, plus there is frequent shuttle bus service to all the terminal buildings from this lot.
  • If you are looking for a great way to get refreshed after a long flight to Kuala Lumpur International Airport, the airport offers showers on the fourth floor of the airport adjacent to the dining area plus you will also find showers on level two of the satellite building.
