The aero train was out of action when we flew KUL-AUH late last year. We were bused between the terminals which wasn’t fun as it was total bedlam as everyone swarmed to the buses and it ended up being like a stampede. It was fixed by time of our return journey thankfully

KL should be a major transit hub but the incompetence of the Malaysians means it remains a backwater.
