All counters are clearly labelled and guests can check the Flight Information Display System (FIDS) monitors throughout the terminal.
AirAsia and AirAsia X will operate a ‘common check-in’ arrangement in klia2 that creates more flexibility for AirAsia’s guests as there will not be dedicated counters for each flight. Please check the FIDS monitors or approach one of AirAsia’s friendly ground staff upon arrival at the terminal.
