Airport → venue & getting around
Integrated rail — MRT, LRT, Monorail and the free GOKL city bus cover the centre, all interchanging at KL Sentral.
Touch 'n Go card (buy/reload at any station) works across all rail lines and the GOKL bus.
Use Grab rather than hailing street taxis — fixed up-front pricing avoids fare disputes.
