P/s: sebelum aku ke India, monolog dalam hati “this is my first and last i’ll travel to India” tapi once experienced my self, India is incredible! Cuma, my cost to India is radiculous sebab I scared to eat street food. Semua makan di 4 and 5 star Restaurant. And transportation mostly guna chauffeur.
Sebelum aku proceed to the itinerary, just nak Tanya. Korang travel untuk tujuan apa? ada yg suka view, ada yang suka history, ada yang suka city, ada yang suka food, shopping and ada jugak pegi cari ‘buddy’ during travelling.
So, aku punya tema kali ni adalah jelajah Hard Rock Cafe India (8 cafes in total) and pegi world seven wonders and UNESCO City.
Amaran: Itinerary ni hanya cadangan perjalanan. Tak perlu follow untuk jenis transportation. Hanya ambk idea je, okay?
As per request (chewaah), attached is my itinerary for previous India trip.

Hello!! Going to Small Country with a big City? Here you go Basic introduction about this Lion City.
Let us start on how to get there. There are few transportation methods on how to reach there (From Malaysia). Here some useful information (probably) to you.
By Land:
Express Bus:
You can take any express bus from Major City to Singapore city. Please take not where your destination in Singapore since their Express Bus terminal not integrated like in Malaysia.
You can take the domestic bus either from Larkin Terminal in Johor Bharu or at the JB Sentral. There is few bus company operates between JB city and Singapore City.
From Larkin Terminal there are three bus operator:
1) SBS (white + Purple color) = Stop at MRT station such as Keranji or Woodland. You can use Easy Link Card
This is taxi usually charging RM50 to Singapore and must stop in specified places. Then you need to take Singapore taxi to places that you wish to go.
1) Jb Central
2) Larkin
3) Senai Airport
4) Unlicensed can be taken at the Larkin parking area. – This taxi can bring you the exact place that you wish to go with minimal price.
Access Singapore from JB Sentral:
1) You can walk from JB Central or City Square towards CIQ. All are connected. It’s quite convenient to walk.
2) You can park in JB Central cost you daily maximum rate RM15.
3) After passing through Immigration at CIQ, you can take Regional Bus to any place in Singapore. Either take a bus to MRT station and travel by MRT or you can take any bus directly to any place you like to reach.
4) You can take express bus directly (Red Color Sentosa) if you wish to go to Sentosa Island or even to Changi Airport.
Access from Second Link:
There is few buses can be accessed from the second link.
1) Causeway link at Gelang Patah.
2) Other express bus from major town in Johore, Malacca or Major City in Malaysia
From Senai Airport, you can take few methods to Singapore.
1) Rent a car.
2) By Express bus to CIQ. Then refer back previous method how to enter Singapore from CIQ. Price about RM8 to CIQ.
3) By Airport taxi – Expensive
4) By Budget taxi- tips: Walk little bit towards Petronas and take taxi from there either to CIQ or directly to Singapore then take another method of transportation.
After touching down at Changi, There are few ways to access to Singapore City. But my suggestion is to use the MRT. The easiest way to reach at any popular destinations.
Tips and info to travel by MRT:
1) MRT located at Terminal 2 and Terminal 3. If you touch down at Terminal 1, you can take Skytrain to T2 or T3.
2) It is suggested and very convenient way to use EZ Link Card instead of using cash and buy one way card.
Changi – Interchange at Tanah Merah Stn – Take the train towards Joo Koon – interchange at City Hall Stn – take the train towards Jurong East and alight at Orchard or Somerset Stn. Both are at Orchard.
4) If you plan to Merlion:
Changi – Exchange at Tanah Merah Interchange – Take the train towards Joo Koon – alight at City Hall – from there you can take a bus or taxi or ask the MRT counter how to get there.
5) If you are travelling to Sentosa:
a) Changi – Exchange at Tanah Merah Interchange – Take the train towards Joo Koon – Exchange at Outram Park Interchange – Take train towards Habour Front – Alight at Harbour Front
b) Changi – Exchange at Tanah Merah Interchange – Take the train towards Joo Koon – Exchange at Paya Lebar Interchange – Take the train towards Harbour front – Alight at Harbour Front
p/s: Choice a is much more faster.
5) If you traveling to Marina Bay sands:
a) Changi – Exchange at Tanah Merah Interchange – Take the train towards Joo Koon – alight at Raffle City – Take a bus/taxi or you can go to Marina Bay Stn as well but you need to take a cab to Bay Sands.
b) Changi – Exchange at Tanah Merah Interchange – Take the train towards Joo Koon – Exchange at Paya Lebar Interchange – Take the train towards Marina Bay – Alight at Bayfront Stn – Walk to Bay Sands

Well, I usually go to Singapore for transit purpose, shopping and dining. That’s it. Not much activity I can share. Sorry for that.
Hi Everybody!! Penah korang dengar tak shopping di Singapore sgt murah berbanding di Malaysia? Yerrrr… Memang murah.. Kadang2 satu barang bezanya bole cecah sehingga RM500.
Hello Shopping!
Yessss…!!!!! Summer sales di bulan June dan Christmas sales or year end sales di bulan December setiap tahun merupakan trip yg paling ideal utk ber-mega shopping di Singapore. Tambah2 26 december…sebenarnya, mana2 negara pon memang akan ada boxing day (barang yg tak habis dijual waktu Xmas, sales up to 80%) pada tarikh tu.
By the way, no point cerita pasal Singapore kalau ada tempat lagi best! ye idok?  Here, saya nak kongsi pengalam duty free shopping di sekitar Dubai. Ye… Dubai. D.U.B.A.I, DUBAI. Jangan terkejut, Dubai memiliki Mall terbesar di Dunia… Menarik kan?
On the to Dubai Mall from Metro DubaiKene marah sebab guna tripod
Ok, plan asal saya, mahu ke Dubai dan Abu Dhabi. Namun harga ticket punya la mahal even beli time Matta Fair, roughly RM3500. Berbekalkan pengalaman travel saya, saya request travel agent dr Discovery travel, Aida namanya utk click ke Istanbul dan transit di Dubai selama 36 jam. Cuba teka traveller sekalian… Br harga tix saya dapat? RM 2080. i repeat, RM2080 dan saya bole cover dua tempat. Yessss!!!!
Hologram welcomes you at DXB
Walaupun waktu transit sy hanya la 36 jam dimana sehari setengah sahaja. Namun, saya terpaksa utk menginap di Hotel selama dua mlm rentetan (chewaahhh rentetan) waktu ketibaan sy di Dubai pada pkl 3 am dan waktu berlepas ke Istanbul 11 am the next two days. Hotel Xclusive Mapel yg saya menginap berharga RM150 semalam melalui hotels.com, saya mampu dpt di bilik studio room yg super duper besar dan juga kitchen yg best.
Studio RoomMy Studio Room with kitchen and very bigs fridge.
Ok back to The itinerary, nak travel Dubai ni senang je… Anda kene plan in advance.. Check schedule Metro Dubai dan plan itinerary anda. Dont worry, metro Dubai very sharp… X mcm KTM Komuter di Malaysia yg selalu delay. Website Metro dubai, www.rta.ae. Saya ambk daily pass gold class just AED30 perday. Tp kalo ambk eco class hanyala AED15 perday.

Salam and selamat petang untuk traveller. Mintak ampun minta maap… Kali ni saya kembali dgn nak share pasal airlines pulak.
Ramai diantara kita yg tau brand airlines seperti Air Asia dan MAS sahaja kan? (Tak semua, tp bilangan tu ramai). Malah yg sedihnya, ada yg rasa Air Asia tu jauh lg murah, walau kadang2 airlines lain bole beat the price dgn luggage 20-30kg, makan minum disedia dan entertainment on board for free!

Ok, tanpa berceloteh panjang, saya nak share mcmana nak fly dgn airlines lain (full service airlines) dengan harapan untuk free upgrade or pay less for business class cabin.Â
Qatar Business Class Cabin HKT-KULQatar SeatQatar AirwaysRoyal Jordanian BKK-KULRoyal Jordanian KUL-BKKQatar SIN-DPSRoyal Brunei Business Class Cabin
Saya penah diupgrade untuk beberapa airlines lebih 10 kali sepanjang hidup saya kalo tak silap. Dgn membayar ticket economy, tapi saya mampu merasa business class cabin.
Situation upgrade:
1) Upgrade melalui online service. Bole surf to this website www.optiontown.com . Dengan website ni, kita bole upgrade ticket economy to bis class ticket dgn bayaran yg minima. Jika dulu, MAS ada join UTO, tp skrg hanya bbrp airlines sahaja spt Vietnam Airlines, Air Asia etc. Saya penah tambah RM110 je utk merasa bis class MAS. Jimat, bukan?
2) Upgrade using frequent traveller cards such as Enrich, Skyward, Qmiles, Royal Skies etc. hanya tolak point
3) Request dgn check in counter. Untuk teknik ni, here the tips:
A) pakai mcm business man
B) confident utk request
C) mention u r frequent traveller
D) request utk flight yg x byk org dlm bisness class cabin cth, MAS ke London waktu pagi, Emirates ke Dubai waktu pagi.
4) kalo x lepas request di kaunter, bole request dlm kabin dgn Senior Flight Officer (SFO) or senang cite ketua pramugari. Ada yang berbayar, tapi please request for free. Teknik ni kene guna PR skills yg tinggi dan confident level yg 100%.
5) kalo kenal ngan pilot, bole minta trus ngan pilot… Hahahha… Ini yg paling ‘dajal’.

4) dot mkn free, mandi, minum2, urut2 dlm lounge

Kalo PR level tahap si kancil, bole je beli direct dr website… X selalunya mahal… Penah ticket bis MAS ke Bangkok and Phuket lg murah dr eco. Begitu juga Royal Jordanian.
Qatar pulak selalu buat promo buy 1 free 1. And skrg Qatar buat promo discount RM650 utk bis class ticket.. Cuba la fly ke Phuket dgn Qatar bis class.
Selalu la usha web airlines. Sy penah dpt promo.. Closing route Qatar Singapore-Jakarta and opening route Singapore-Bali dengan harga lagi murah dari eco singapore airlines.
Hi.. Salam rakan Traveller sekalian… Kali ni sy nak share pulak berkaitan pemilihan airlines dan pemilihan airport.
Ramai yg tdk tahu bahawa airlines dan airport juga ada ranking bintang nya tersendiri bukan. Saya harap lepas sy share benda ni xde la yg merungut apabila naik 3 star airlines, tp nak service mcm 5 star..
Antara syarikat penerbangan bertaraf lima bintang ialah:
Biasanya service ground handling, call centre, in flight service, amenities and lounge service 5 star airlines ni tip top la sikit..walau kadang2 rasa juga ke’taik’an dia tu.
Tutup cite pasal airlines 5 bintang, kita sambung pulak pemilihan tempat transit.
a) Singapore airlines = Singapore
b) Thai Airways = Bangkok
c) Emirates = Dubai
d) Etihad = Abu Dhabi
e) Qatar = Doha
f) Turkish airlines = Istanbul
g) ANA and JAL = Narita
h) Air astana = Almaty
And byk la lagi, Korean Air, British Airways, Oman Air…bla bla bla.
So, lepas ni, check la dulu kat mana korang kene transit…nanti xde la mati kutu kalo transit kat airport entah apa2.. Hehehe
Antara airport bertaraf lima bintang pula:
1) Changi, Singapore
2) Hong Kong
3) Incheon, Seoul
Airport 5 star ada provide byk amenities, seperti lounge yg byk, kerusi tido, swimming pool pun ada, ada wayang free, powder room n mcm2 lg la… So, backpackers nak tido pon selesa… Siap ada carpet lg… Nak mandi senang, ada shower… X mcm Airport yang tak five star. Kosong! KLIA Airport 4 star je….
World best airport shopping:Â
1) Heathrow
2) Dubai
3) Amsterdam
4) Changi
5) Hong kong
World airport dining:
1) Munich
2) Hong Kong
3) Incheon
4) Amsterdam
5) Changi
Itu saja kot…. Haaa sblm saya akhiri, satu lg sy nak share… World best airport transit:
1) Incheon
2) Changi
3) Hong Kong
4) Amsterdam
5) Narita
Hi Traveller!!! Happy Saturday… Korang penah tak nak travel on the spot, tp selalu dpt ticket mahal… Emergency nak fly… Ticket juga mahal… Begitu juga hotel… Last minutes plan… Semua mahal!!!
Ok sy ada sikit tips… Walau x brp nak best tips yg ni.. Tp sikit juga la rasanya bole membantu..kpd spesis2 last minit travel mcm sy ni…
Ok kita tolak tepi Matta fair price, Air Asia sales, MAS deal ke apa2 airlines deal… Yg ni hanya applicable utk yg beli normal fare sahaja..
Hari yg sesuai utk travel dgn harga economy promo:
1) rabu/wednesday 2) sabtu/saturday
Alasan:
Pada hari tersebut jarang org travel.
Contoh:
Business man, working sector biasanya fly on monday or tuesday.. And back on thursday or friday… Org x pg meeting or kursus tgh2 minggu…
Bg traveller pulak, org travel on friday and sunday… Jarang org travel on tuesday… Sbb tu kbyk seat airlines kosong on saturday…
Dari segi timing pula:
1) first flight in the morning 2) last flight
Alasan:
Biasanya yg naik flight pg ni…org yg nak pg meeting, seminar or apa2 urusan kerja..dan diorg hanya beli ticket 2-3 before fly… Jd korang ambk la peluang fly pg, beli ticket 4 hari awal pon da bole murah.
Contoh:
Time sy praktikal at senai airport, tiap2 minngu sy ulang alik dr JHB-KUL… Sy dpt ticket monday morning dr MAS RM50 or Malindo RM49. Sabtu pagi pulak naik Malindo RM39-49 perway. Lg jimat dr naik bus. Flight hari sabtu sy beli on the spot pon dpt harga tu at that time… Hahahaa
Ok, dr segi hotel pula, ada dua kategori.
1) corporate hotel 2) resort
Corporate hotel:
Hotel yg biasa ada di city centre cth westin, concorde, shangri-la, ritz-carlton.. Hotel2 mcm ni akan mahal bila weekdays and murah bila weekend… So, korang nak test branded hotel, bole la try weekend… Murah la sikit..l
Resort:
Biasanya resort akan mahal bila weekend, public holidays, cuti skolah…n bla2 cuti…
So, try la bercuti on weekdays!!!! Yg murah tu, xde la murah sgt…tp murah sikit… Kira as low season price…
Happy travelling guys!!!
Ritz Carlton Kuala LumpurThe Ritz Carlton Kuala LumpurTilam yang empuk!!Hard Rock Hotel PattayaHard Rock Hotel BaliCasa Del Rio, Malacca
Salam Hari Malaysia Traveller!!! Kompem ramai yg ambk kesempatan ambk cuti Monday and here we go, Travel!!!!! So do i, sy masih lagi di Singapore, waiting flight utk blk KUL.
Today, just wanna share my trip to Manila using Malaysia Airlines “our nation proud airlines”.
Okay, percaya tak ticket saya ke manila RM98 return dari Singapore-Kuala Lumpur-Manila-Kuala Lumpur-Singapore? Total of 4 flights? Basic fare USD 4 je? Percaya x?
Saya pon terkejut. Setelah 3 minggu research pasal airlines, finally saya jumpa ticket through apps KAYAK.com
BTW ticket Air Asia saya ke Singapore adalah redeem points and just byr TAX and LUGGAGE sahaja.
Ok here the tips how to get cheapest fare:
No 1: download as many as apps that u can, then compare them all. Tp kayak adalah search engine yg paling baik buat masa ni pada pandangan saya.
No2: Compare dgn 3-4 destinasi. Jgn aim satu destinasi je.
No3: jgn ambk home airport flights. Sila ambk transit flight. Contoh, kalo nak naik Mas, best way naik kat Singapore or Jakarta.
No4: pengalaman sy, flight dr Sinngapore byk lg murah dr KL. So do with flight dr Bangkok.
No5: katakan kalo aim Malaysia Airlines, buka website MAS dekat negara yg kita nak fly from. Maybe ada promo kat certain route. Them your duty is to find best fare from apps base on that route.
No6: da jumpa price, date and destination yg kene dengan impian. Trus GRAB! Biasanya ada 5 je seat.
Happy weekend traveller! Last weekend sy ada try Medium Haul flight Malaysian Airlines MH from SIN-KUL-MNL return. So, today, sy just nak review sikit pasal Malaysia Airlines.

Of course, semua org da biasa dgn our nation proud airlines kan. Tapi takpe, sy just nak review from my point of view. Maybe ada yg tak setuju dgn sy, tp itu lah hakikatnya.

Nampak tak kat mana kejayaan MAS sblm ni? Tp mkn tahun makin jatuh. Kejatuhan MH ni sblm peristiwa MH370 and MH17 lg… al-Fatihah…
Apa2 lets review:
Class yg saya naik Economy.
Fleet: B737-800
Seats: rasanya kurang selesa utk flight dekat dgn 4 jam. Sbb takder neck pillow. Blanket and pillow on request. So seating sy bg 3 bintang je.
Entertainment: KUL-MNL agak bosan. Sbb most of movies sy da tgk. Tp MNL-KUL MH ada tmbh movies. So dpt la layan CHEF! Satu lagi. Ada apps al-Quran atas tu. Alhamdulillah, sempat sy mengaji walau kat umah tidak! Opppst!
Alhamdulillah…. ada ayat suci al-quranSuggestion to MAS: Please provide headphone before take off.
Lavatory: sy bole kasi 4 bintang. Biasa la org Malaysia.
Cabin crew: ini sememangnya semua tau! 5 bintang! Sy minta mkanan 2 pack! Air 2 gelas darab 4! Hahaha diorg mmg baik!
Announcement: 5 bintang! Mmg clear. Eventhough pilot announcement. Mmg friendly and warm greeting.
Foods: KUL-MNL sy ambk both chicken and fish.
Chicken: pack yg telanjang! Nasi, ayam n sayur + biskut je. Patut la kene kutuk ngan Chef Wan. Takder appetizer, xde dessert, xde buah! Haiishh sungguh bosan! 1 bintang je lah! Mas patut stop Berahim
Ikan: portion sama mcm ayam cuma ikan berbau sangat!
By Brahims. Taste just plain. The rice are smelly.
MNL-KUL yg ni sedap! Sumpah sedap! 4 bintang utk food dr manila. Sy mkn 2 juga. Meehun with shrimp and chicken with rice. Ada juga dpt cloud 9 and drinking water. Rasa food dia ok sbb bukan Berahims.
Better taste than BrahimsTaste Good!!Taste good compare to Brahimscan u see this? this from MNL
Kacang pon da jenama apa2 ntah. Da xde chop mas.
Drinks pon x variety. Da takder da pink guava!
Always request for 2 cups of drink
Bufday cake: yang ni 5 bintang! Kalo nak buat surprise anda bole call Mas utk book on board bufday cake! Price bole check ngan MAS.
MH Gourmet:
Ini 5 bintang juga! Food bole order through call centre. Menu ada dlm website. Harga rm70. Route applicable when fly from KUL only. Sy xdpt nak try sbb MNL-KUL xde food ni and sy expect makanan MAS sedap mcm dulu2.
Rasanya kalo mas ada masalah kewangan, bole stop champange and wine and focus more on food. And stop berahim.
Remove alcohol and spend more on meals. as pax, we glad if our meal are real meal.
Ermm, rasanya ni je kot pengalaman sy naik MH medium haul. Tak tau la sy akan cuba ke tak utk long haul memandangkan mcm tu je food sy dpt and seat x selesa utk tido. Apa2 pon utk short haul, mmg saya akan support MH!
what are missing? 1) appetiser 2) drinks 3) desert 4) fruits
