A false impression by many... that getting a good, affordable and healthy meal is nearly impossible. If you are concerned of the potentially dissatisfying plane food, it is always wise to have a quick fix before jetting off but with so many options choose from, it can be a little overwhelming. If the stomach is rumbling, get yourself a healthy fix at Flight Club without worrying the fat factor. Strategically located at the Mezzanine Floor of the Satellite Terminal (of International Departure), Flight Club is one of the dining labels under Plaza Premium Group and offers a selection of healthy cuisines to air travelers. "Herbs & Seeds" is the concept heavily promoted in Flight Club, all dishes are supplemented with a selection of herbs and seeds for better health benefits. Budget watchers would be glad to know that dining in Flight Club would not break the bank, a satisfying breakfast starts from Rm 16 nett or a glass of cold pressed Fruit Juice (from Rm 16 nett) would give you an opportunity to dine-in the restaurant with spectacular airport view and unlimited usage of high speed WiFi. The restaurant is not exclusive and opens to all public.
I opted for Malaysian Chicken Satay for a light bite since it was quite late. The skewers were nicely grilled and served with the classic peanut sauce. Decent appetizer if you are feeling peckish for a small supper snack.
Opening Offer (March 1 – June 30, 2023) Plaza Premium Lounge – From RM 146 per person (2-hour lounge use)
Plaza Premium is very much a functional lounge, taking you out of the terminal atmosphere, but not really providing anything too special. That said, one member of staff was helpful with a private room after a baby ‘accident’, saving us from a messy flight!
Plaza Premium First KLIA T1 offers a more exclusive lounge experience where you will be served ala-carte whereas Plaza Premium Lounge is free flow buffet style.
So, was it worth it? I needed to get some work done so a nice working desk was crucial. The WiFi connection was smooth throughout my stay and it was convenient to fill up my tummies as well as getting a Coffee boost. It was a very productive 3-hour for me, though RM 75 may sound steep but I've managed to get some works done as well as sorted out my dinner. I thought it was quite worth it. Otherwise, you may not find the "value" in it.
