Rozhan 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2005 (edited) About this ERL thing. There is a sign, and occasionally announcements are made to 'remind' passengers to buy ERL / KLIA Express train tickets before using the check-in facilities at KL Sentral. What legal right do they have to compel or force people to travel on the ERL if passengers just want to check-in at KL Sentral and travel to the airport via other means? Passengers' contract for air travel is between them and the respective airlines, in this case either MAS, Cathay Pacific or Royal Brunei Airlines, which are the only airlines offering city check-in facilities at KL Sentral. ERL has no business in forcing people to use their services. If they can't attract other airlines to use KL Sentral check-in facilities, thereby attracting more people to use the ERL, then that is their problem to sort out. Not by means of forcing people. And by the way, I think ERL is cost-effective only for the single traveller. For two persons, it cost less to the airport via a taxi than taking the ERL. I'd rather take the taxi for door to KUL service when travelling in twos. Just RM 65 from KL, as opposed to RM 10 from house to KL Sentral, and another RM 70 for the train ride for 2, which totals RM 80.
