I had an emergency last Tue which I had to traveled back to my hometown in Temerloh, Pahang. Fireflyz ticket costed me RM349 fr PEN-SZB, so I decided to take a bus. So, made a trip to KL by Plusliner express bus for RM36 via an online booking at http://www.ticket4u.com.my/plusliner/. I seldom take a bus, but this double-decker Plusliner is so comfy all the way, will travel w Plusliner again.
It was a 4.5 hrs journey from Sg Nibong bus station to Old KTM station, KL. This is where my adventure started. The bus stopped by the roadside in front of bus waiting lounge by the Heritage Station Hotel. My immediate destination is Pasar Seni (Central Market) LRT, and the final destination in KL is Hentian bas Jalan Pekeliling. Sharing my experience... get into ETS (dunno stands for what), just go thru it, and it comes to the KTM Komuter station. If you Google where the Plusliner stop, just look for the 'The Heritage Station Hotel, KL'. Turn left and take the pedestrian bridge to Hentian Bas Klang signboard on the other side. Then, walk towards the escalator (abt 200m away) to the next pedestrian bridge. You will see Pasar Seni LRT on yr right. Get down from the 2nd bridge and cross the road towards the LRT. You will see Post Office somewhere on yr left. Take the staircase (or escalator?) to the LRT station. It's just about 600m and 12mins from the bus stop. Buy a ticket to Masjid Jamek (for interchange), that costs me RM1 (hint: arah Gombak). From Masjid Jamek, get out to the next station across the road (to Sentul Timur). It costs RM1.20 from Masjid Jamek to Titiwangsa (arah Chan Siow Lin?). Get down and follow the signboard to Hentian Bas Pekeliling. All in all, it took me about 50mins from KL Komuter/Plusliner bus stop to Hentian Bas Pekeliling. Not bad, after all I get to exercise!!
Alhamdulillah, I managed to catch the next bus to Temerloh which departed 5 mins later. It was Metro bus and again, alhamdulillah it's comfy and smooth journey. Hmm.. I suppose the last time I took a bus from KL to Temerloh was about 15 years ago. Whooow.
I reached Temerloh toll plaza at 2.30pm and reached home safely at 2.45pm. Alhamdulillah.
