Sleeping inside or in nearby hotels (KUL)

Overnight layover guide. Sleeping facilities in the public zone or boarding area

Please note that some published services and schedules may be subject to change. If the idea is to spend the night in the public area, consider a plan B in case the stay inside the airport is only allowed for those who are about to board. Spending the night at the airport

Kuala Lumpur Airport operates many flights and connections, so it's often busy, even at night. Earplugs are needed for a good night's sleep. The place can get quite cold, so keep a coat handy.

Where to rest: While there is plenty of seating and carpeted areas throughout the site, the main terminal has more comfortable options, especially near gate 10. The food court on the second floor is a particularly quiet place, as is level 4. There are several VIP lounges within the airport, some open 24 hours a day. However, be aware that they generally have a maximum stay. On the other hand, there are transit hotels in both terminals and a few options closer to the airport.

Baggage: 24-hour left-luggage service in Terminal 1.

Eating and drinking: There are options open during the night in both terminals.

Restrooms: In addition to the VIP lounges, free showers are available on the fourth floor of the main terminal.

Wi-Fi: Free for 3 hours.

Other services available around the clock: ATMs, convenience and duty-free stores, baby changing facilities, children's playgrounds.
