2015 Pakistan Day 01 : Kuala Lumpur - Lahore

"Slow down and enjoy life. Its not on the scenery you miss by going too fast. You also miss the sense of where you are going and why..." - Eddie Cantor


Day 01: Wednesday, 09 September 2015
KL – Bangkok - Lahore
Carlton Tower Hotel
TG 415/TG 345

From our Bidara house we took an early cab to KLIA and had ample time to have breakfast before we met with 13 others for the Safir group check-in. Our 01:20hrs Thai Airways TG 415 flight was punctual. There was a 6-hour transit in Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport before our next flight to Lahore. The Bangkok Airport was swarmed with jemaah from Myanmar transiting before they fly to the holy lands to perform their Haj.

Our TG 345 flight landed at Lahore Allama Iqbal International Airport around midnight. There was a warm welcome waiting for us on arrival. Our 3 local guides Peter, Ghafur and Rahmet and Omar the driver will accompany us throughout the journey tracing the Ancient Silk Route. Our transport for the Pakistan adventure was a 20-seater coaster, spacious enough to sit the 15 of us and our 3 local guides. Our luggage was piled and secured on top of the coaster and were covered to keep things dry and dust-free.

We checked in Carlton Tower Hotel and had a light supper before we retired for the night.
