Left for KL Sentral at 6.15 am by cab and took the KLIA Express (RM 35.00). It was worth the price since Boey checked in her luggage and got her boarding pass at KL Sentral itself (no long lines). I was a little unfortunate as my flight was at 9.50pm and couldn't check my luggage until 9.30 am at KLIA. The Express only took 30 minutes.
After sending off Boey to Taiwan at 9.00am :( , I was left to my own devices until 1.30 pm at which I checked into the Airside Transit Hotel (RM 160.00 for 6 hours). International travellers: Make sure you get enough sleep or risk missing your connecting flight if you have to make several transits to reach your destination. I had to make 2 transits: at Chennai, India and Brussels, Belgium.

I purchased my flights through orbitz.com via a very handy website: Hipmunk and my flight were with MAS (Malaysia) and Jet Airways (India).
The hotel is located in the satellite building where my boarding gate was also located. To access this satellite building, you need to take the Aerotrain (FOC) from the main building. Surprisingly, there was also a pocket jungle right in the middle of the building. Once reaching my room at the hotel, I hit the steam bath and sauna, making sure I fully utilize the RM 160.00 spent (T_T).

After dinner, I went to the waiting area for the first leg of the flight.
