Previously the main international airport, it is now only used for domestic flights. Plans are underway for the further development of several airports and there are many other small airstrips also in use. Boats may easily be chartered and river buses and taxis are plentiful. The fast daytime 'Express Rakyat' runs from Singapore to Butterworth. Express trains are modern, and some have sleeping berths and buffet cars.
Some trains are air-conditioned.
Other than this line, there are two main lines operated for a passenger service. One runs along the west coast and from Singapore which runs northwards to Kuala Lumpur and Butterworth, meeting the Thai railways at the border. The other line separates from the west coast line at the town of Gemas and takes a northeastern route to Kota Bharu and Tenom. There are no rail services in Sarawak. The pass can be purchased from train stations in Butterworth, Johor Bahru, Kuala Lumpur, Padang Besar, Port Kelang, Rantau Panjang, Wakaf Bharu and Singapore.
