Hi everyone!
Welcome to my Flight Report. In this report, I want to share about my trip to Dunhuang from Kuala Lumpur with Batik Air Malaysia (OD).

Since I had plenty of time before boarding, I took a walk around KLIA T1. I tried the new sky train and walked around the satellite concourse before heading to the boarding gate.
