It is a long travelling day today. Up, breakfast and backpacks sorted before setting off for Penang International airport. The initial plan was to overland back to KL before jetting off to Mumbai.
This would have meant a minimum 10 hour bus to KL then another hour bus to the airport. A long day at best a real faff at worst. We wouldn’t have gained anything as we still would have had no time to do anything in the city.
A few days ago I changed plan and booked us a direct flight from Penang direct to KL with a 3 hour window before our next flight. It works out at around 25 pounds to fly rather than road and only takes an hour. A no brainer really. We fly Air Asia to KL then Malindo air to Mumbai. It’s only a five hour flight and gets us in to Mumbai at 22:20 (20:20 our current time zone) if it’s on time.
Were staying down near the Gateway to India close to Elephant Jetty so will have to get a taxi due to the arriving late. Everyday the pound exchange rate is improving as Brexit approaches. Bring it on...
