The alarm woke us at 4.00 am. By 5.15 am we were already at KL Sentral departure hall and took the 5.20 am ERL to KLIA.
Arrived at KLIA in time for Subuh prayers. The seven of us gathered at the Departure Hall KLIA at 6.30 am for group check-in. There was a slight problem with hubby's ticket but the error was quickly rectified. There was ample time for the group to have breakfast at the food court.
By 9.30 am we boarded the Air Arabia plane to Sharjah which was supposed to depart at 10.00 am but delayed for 30 minutes. Pre-ordered chicken briyani meals were served for lunch on board.
Arrived at Sharjah Airport around 2:00 pm. Transit in Sharjah was for 14 hours. Sharjah has been named the "Cultural Capital of the Arab World" by UNESCO, in recognition of its efforts to promote Arab culture and heritage. Sharjah is a popular destination for tourists, as it offers a mix of historical, cultural, and natural attractions. It is also a great place for shopping. We will be having a city tour in Sharjah on our return trip if time permitted.
