His flight was around 4.50pm and we left the house around 4pm, it only takes around 10-15 minutes to the Ipoh airport.... It has been many years since I last visited my hometown's airport because it does not cater to many places, just Medan (I think) and Singapore....
At the T-junction traffic light..
turn right to the airport...
This Royalty banner captured my eyes....
the airport is named after our Perak Sultan...
due to the haze, the grass are yellowish...

eh... under renovation too!
reminded me of Sibu airport...
Maybe it will be completed when I "fly" the next time..
perhaps in one month

The temporary entrance to the airport....
15 minutes before departure.....
till we meet again...
IN less than two hours my handphone rang...
AA has reached his destination... so fast!
Thank you Firefly!
I will fly in you one day!!
Thank you Firefly!

Before you can say, "Bye", he has arrived.... and you have not reached home yet...
ReplyDeletehahahaa... before i could "warm" my seat at home..yeah!
ReplyDeleteHopefully Ipoh airport can fly us to more places in future. At least to Hong Kong or Taiwan, hoh?
ReplyDeleteThe last time I visit to the airport was back in year 2000
ReplyDeleteGoodness! Now I remembered I landed there in 1973!! I was a kid.
ReplyDeletepam: yeah..we cannot be too demanding hor! hahaha...
ReplyDeletesimpleperson: mine is way far further...
twilight: I was there around in the 1980s...
FireflyZ right? I can't think of any other airlines that go in to ipoh
ReplyDeleteIf in KL, we won't be home yet when a person arrives their destination coz KLIA is like so far from anywhere :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it is Firefly!!
ReplyDeletemerryn: yeah, i have to drive more than 3 hours to reach KLIA!
Here in Hawaii, there is an airport on each island. Yeah, it's a hassle to visit friends on other islands because of the expense of flying -- can't drive. There used to be a ferry, but the government got rid of it.
ReplyDeletelast year, my girl bought a seat last minute and it was so expensive..
ReplyDeleteYa...like Sibu airport. Still doing it, not completed it...but progress is good. They said September - hopefully it will be so.
ReplyDeleteNo Firefly from here and Firefly from Sibu before would fly to KLIA...and if ti Ipoh, would have to go all the way to Subang to catch the flight. Such a nuisance...
I hope Air Asia will fly Sibu-Ipoh one day...
gigi: yeah, i can understand how it is... flights are quite pricey...
ReplyDeletewenn: last minute are expensive...
stp: i wish for that too! then we can fly here and there anytime we like and have good food.....hohoho...
Are you coming to Sibu next month?
ReplyDeleteGo Medan...since there is a direct flight from Ipoh.....I am goin back to Medan in Nov.
Mery, no lar.. not next month.. no flight yet from ipoh to sibu.. hahha...

Sound really fast and convenient to fly from Ipoh to Singapore via Firefly.
ReplyDeleteReach Singapore safe and sound in just less than 2 hours, wah same like travelling from Ipoh to KL.
ReplyDeleteSoon, very soon air travel will be like taxi lah,, so easy and convenient,,,,but I don't think it connects Penang and Ipoh,kan?
