Kuching International Airport
Kuching International Airport is Sarawak's main international airport and is situated 11Km south of the city of Kuching. It is the third largest airport in Malaysia after Kuala Lumpur International Airport and Kota Kinabalu International Airport
The arrival concourse (ground Floor) is spacious. Convenience store, mini post office, MacDonalds and a restaurant can be found here.
Taxi coupon and car rental booth is also situated on the arrival hall. The fare from the airport to the city centre is RM 17.50
This is the driving lane at the Departure level. Notice the resemblance of the structure to those in Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
There are more shops on the Departure level compare to the Arrival level. There are a few souvenir shops, chocolate shops, Starbuck and KFC on this level.
There is an small aquarium on this level which contains reefs and fishes
This is the departure hall. It has a total of 9 boarding gates with aerobridge facilities. There is another gate, Gate R (no aerobridge facility) for Air Asia passenger and smaller aircraft operated by Mas Wings.
As a traveler, I might find this airport boring as there is not much can be done here. There is not much shopping to be done also compare to KLIA, Kota Kinabalu and Penang International airport.
