List of Transport Operators in Malaysia

A significant number of Malaysians use public transport to travel between the cities. Apart from rail transport, many Malaysians and tourists prefer to use express buses to go to the different cities in Malaysia. This is because Malaysian cities generally have better road connections compared to rail connection.

Currently, inter-city rail connection only covers certain cities along the west coast region of Peninsular Malaysia. Therefore, people going to other parts in Malaysia will need to use express bus service to reach their destination.

Express buses in Malaysia can be categorised to several categories, namely single decker and double decker. Besides, the seat arrangement is also different, with most long-haul routes will utilise the buses with 2+1 seat arrangement. On the other hand, shorter routes will generally utilise the smaller 2+2 seating arrangement.

Up to 15% Discount on KLIA Transit

Some of us may already know that KLIA Transit offers 10% discount on its tickets purchased at its kiosks located at the stations. This is done probably to reduce congestion at its ticket counters. While most users can save from the offer, we found out many of the travelers are not aware of this discount.

Since Maybank has 5% cashback for all retail transactions during the weekends for its Maybank 2 Cards, you can use your American Express card while purchasing your tickets.

Receipt at Touch ‘N Go Lanes

If you need to retrieve receipts at toll plazas, then it might be cumbersome for you if you use Touch ‘N Go or Smart Tag regularly.

It is because if you need receipt, you are left with the following options:

Take receipts at cash lanes
Take receipts at Touch ‘N Go reload lanes

Both of these lanes are also used by 1) Customers paying by cash and 2) Customers reloading their Touch ‘N Go cards.

Therefore, presence of automated receipt dispensing machine is really appreciated. As shown in the picture above, there is a machine to dispense receipts at Touch ‘N Go lanes. This one is seen at westbound Batu Tiga toll plaza. No similar lane can be seen at eastbound one though.

We hope highway concessionnaires can come up with at least one of these lanes at major highways soon. It can surely eliminate congestion at cash and reload lanes.
