What is it like to take a private jet in Malaysia? I recently took a private jet at Kuala Lumpur Subang Airport in Malaysia. Let me share my experience. Let me walk you through what the boarding process is like.
First, I gave them my license plate and driver number a day in advance to make sure everything went smoothly. When I arrived at the airport, exactly 20 minutes before departure, the airport opened the door for me. The ground staff met me very kindly and asked for the tail number of my plane. The strangest thing was that they knew me without me even saying who I was. I think maybe the airport had arranged thoughtful services in advance.
While waiting to board the plane, the ground staff checked my passport and luggage. Since there were no more than 10 people in our group, our customs clearance procedure only took 10 minutes, which was very fast.
When my plane was ready, the ground staff informed me that I could board. They personally escorted me onto the plane. I found it very convenient to have the aircraft parked just steps away from the Fixed Base Operator (FBO). I can easily walk to the plane, no need to take a shuttle bus ride!
After boarding the plane, as soon as I sat down, the door of the plane was closed. The flight attendant had such a friendly smile. The most amazing thing was not long after we sat down, the plane already taxied out. We were able to take off very quickly.
