MCT KLIA international-domestic

[Wanderlust_tim]

Hi all,
Can anyone advise what the MCT at KLIA is from international to domestic. MH have just retimed an upcoming flight leaving me with a 50 minute connection. That seems far too tight to me. Grateful for an advice.

Cheers

Hi all,
Can anyone advise what the MCT at KLIA is from international to domestic.

Dom-int or Int-Dom, which airlines?

Someone can then look up EF.
KLIA is generally pretty efficient, but I'd still think MCT is higher than 45.

MCT is 1 Hour for Int - DOM at KUL

STANDARD.D/D...D/I...I/D...I/I.
ONLINE 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00
OFFLINE 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00


now analysing it from a practical perspective

Can one make a 50min connection at KUL from intl to domestic. Yes. Gates close 10 minutes before departure, so you will have 40 mins to make this connection which is doable if you know your way around KUL

BUT you will have very little time / buffer for ANY incoming delays and queues at airside Intl - Domestic immigration (now I have never had a queue going from intl -> domestic when I'm there ~9pm but unsure about other times. the queues going from dom -> intl can get quite bad) and your luggage may not make it.

Is there a later DOM flight departing which you will be happy to take if you misconnect on the original DOM flight? If so, I would say go for it.

Thank you @ermen and @moa999 - things have gotten rather weird since i posted. I called MH to query it all today and they advised that my first flight has actually been completely cancelled and that they are sorry that i have had no notifications. I am now liaising with them via email to find a solution as it was too complex for the call centre to deal with.

If anyone is interested, my original itinerary was:
13/11 MH865 - KNO-KUL 1700 - 1905
13/11 MH1456 - KUL-LGK 2110 - 2220

The new itinerary is
13/11 MH865 - KNO-KUL 1650 - 1855 (possibly cancelled)
13/11 MH1456 - KUL-LGK 1945 - 2050

Things could get tricky as i am flying into Medan from Banda Aceh on the morning of the 13th
