Here's one more way to get between Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok: Malaysian budget carrier Batik Air has launched a new service between Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB) and Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) on July 28. 

The inaugural flight took off on July 28, marking the start of greater connectivity between Malaysia and Thailand's capital cities. For travellers, Subang is a great alternative to fly in and out of, too, as it's just 20 minutes from the KL city centre – closer than Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

The new route is Batik Air's first international service operating from Subang Airport. The Subang-Bangkok route follows the launch of its Subang-Kuching route in the same week, bolstering the carrier's existing services from Subang to Penang, Kota Bahru, Kota Kinabalu, and Tawau.
