My serious advice for a tourist, spot only at the Observation Deck at the Terminal in KUL.
Agree with you Hon Kit.
My advice above was for spotter, not a tourist

Hi all, a new member here.
I'm planning on heading to Kuala Lumpur around August for some spotting and I was wandering if I could get some info and advice for a tourist.
My plan is to arrive on a Monday on EK from MEL, spend a few hours spotting, catch a taxi to Subang to catch Raya Airways 727's (do they have a schedule? looking at FR24 they seem to fly tuesday-Saturday), and hopefully Westar's aviation's G-2, 732 and 721. (anyone know how often they fly?)
I will stay near Subang for a few days in Hotel Newton Subang, does anyone here know how long it would take to walk from the hotel to SZB's spotting points? I won't have a car unfortunately and will be forced to commute on foot or by taxi, is the area safe? expescially since I will have some expensive camera gear.
On Thursday? I will catch a taxi back to KUL and stay at a hotel nearby (any suggestions?)
The main things I want to catch are Iran air's 74SP (Saturdays?), LH A343, MH A388's, CI A343, FlyNas 744, Iraqi Air 744, Saudi 744 ect.
Anyone know what the normal runway configuration which is normally used and the best spots for those movements (32L)? and again, I wont have a car so I will have to walk.
I then plan to fly out to Hong Kong on CX or MH for spotting.
Thanks in advance all, I hope to meet many more aviation enthusiasts in a different part of the world including many users of this forum.
Regards, Brad.
Hello Brad,
I'm not a regular SZB spotter, just went there once in the past few months, I hope my fellow SZB Spotters might help you about that.
Regarding in KUL, Wednesday and Saturday there is Iran 747sp , LH343, CI343, MH A388, Iraqi Airways might send 332/77L instead of 744(rare stuff). Saudia would be 77W , and if got some surprise, former MAS B744 now flying with Saudia livery.
About the hotel, the closest to the airport was Sama-Sama Hotel (opposite to KLIA), and Tune Hotel (opposite KLIA2). If you wish to stay in budget hotel, there is some budget hotels nearby KLIA, such as Bandar Enstek.(15min) from spotting location. I can't guarantee that the airport police would send you away if they wanted to do so after the drone incident in 32L.
You definitely need a car here, you don't wanna to walk some 10km from the hotel to the runway
There might be using of 14L for takeoff, 14R for landing during August. And runway 15 for the low cost carrier. August might be the haze weather again in Malaysia.
Regards,
Syafiq

These 2 photos is after I arrived from Kuala Lumpur. 13/6/2014
While waiting for my flight back to Kuala Lumpur with MH608,went to the end of E gates at Terminal 2.There is a open space for passenger to relax and got a good view but disrupted by a little reflection because that place is dark.

Hi there... Yes the Observation Hill are prohibited to access for security reasons. Since KLIA area quite big, I suggest you to use car to go spotting. Pusat Kaji Cuaca I think no longer available for spotting because that place was the site for KLIA2. My friend got a spot near Runway 14L that suitable for spotting, but it was inside the palm trees site. You may go to Observation Deck to spotting aircraft. The interesting aircraft can be seen during daylight is EK346 (A380-800) that park at C27 ...It arrive at 3pm like that.. and of course Malaysia Airlines A380-800 usually park at C17. Good Luck for your spotting! Cheers!Hi all,
As I am pretty new to malaysianwings, this is my first post.
I will be visiting KUL next week, and planning to do some spotting there. Do anyone has updates/places to do those. I've heard about the prohibited Observation hill, and the pusat kaji cuaca, can anyone give more updates? Things I would like to know about each spots are;
1. Should I have/use a car to access the place?
2. Is the place spotter-friendly?
3. What things (planes) interesting can be seen during daylight?
Thanks in advance,
Edric

I think July,1 we need to make a touch and go, since Qatari would deploy A346 on that day, its first flight.
