Low cost carrier terminal

At last, I've experienced the terminal. The building itself reflects the low cost emphasis. Someone said it reminded her of the hypermarkets. Very true.
The lines going through the baggage security checks were haphazard. It is still early days for the terminal but some sort of order is necessary so that there will be smooth operations from point A to B. A much more efficient system has to be implemented. A better system would enable passengers to experience a less hassle free journey.
The walk to the airplane was another first after the old airport at Subang. Passengers had to follow designated paths to their respective carriers. The lines look like disciplined ducks walking back to their nests. The rain that day did not help to improve the efficiency. The flight was delayed due to some technical problem. I hope this aspect of the delays will be just a memory once the new planes start replacing the old ones.
Anyway, this would not be my last experience here since despite everything, I will still be using a low cost carrier as one of the means to travel far and wide.
