Getting to Labuan, Malaysia

GETTING TO LABUAN

By Air
Malaysian Airlines operates regular flights from Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bharu and Kuching to Kota Kinabalu. Other major airlines also have flights from Singapore, Brunei, Jakarta, Manila, Hong Kong, and Taipei.

By Road
There is an excellent road system linking the principal cities. Express buses link major towns while mini-buses are used for shorter distances and within town areas. Shared taxis, mini-buses, ordinary buses and boats are the means of getting around. For journeys to towns further away, MAS operates several daily flights from Labuan.

By Rail
There is a rail line from Beaufort to Tenom in the south but rail transport is otherwise little developed.

By River
In the interior regions, rivers form the roads linking riverside villages. Travelling by traditional sampans (small boats) or longboats is the way to go.
