My ETS Experience

As I have written in my previous posts, I used KL public transport while I was there for two nights recently. From our place of lodging, we walked to Berjaya Times Square to take a monorail to KL Central...

from this experience, I get to know more ....
now if you ask me what to take to KL Central, I can tell u.. lol..

a tip.. if you are a frequent traveler in KL,
it is advisable to buy a Touch N Go card....

u don't have to wait long for a monorail to arrive...
not like KTM....

what's this?
ETS seat
just like an airplane seat.. with a tray..

see the beautiful seats.. so new and nice
from Ipoh to KL cost RM30 each...
and the journey takes "2.15 hours"

see... so clean and nice....
hope it stays that way, KTM...
ok, let me tell my incident..

when I checked in my seat, another passenger has the same seat number with me..
Upon further checking, I realized that my own ticket date was wrong, it was printed one day later...... I panicked.. I quickly ran down to the ETS booth and told them of their date error...
Thank goodness, they allowed me to board the train but seated at a different coach...

One lesson learnt - remember to check your ETS ticket immediately upon purchase...
