One unique feature stands out – a chai seller peddling tea on a bicycle near the arrival and departure halls. This quaint touch adds a local flavor and the chai is a budget-friendly treat at around RM5.
Navigating the airport is hassle-free due to its size, taking about 15 minutes to walk from one end to the other. However, it’s advisable to arrive early as the check-in counters are few, and the immigration entry to the departure area can be cramped, often resulting in queues during peak hours.
Connecting to the city center may take around 45 minutes, though this time can stretch to 1.5 hours during busy periods. To avoid traffic and ensure a smooth journey, arriving ahead of time is your best bet. While the Senai International Airport might not be expansive, it still manages to deliver a satisfactory travel experience, especially if you plan ahead.
