Same problem in Kaula Lampur, or really my sales guys did.

Me? I pack hanging bag, laptop case and carry a copy of the proposal (Application Engineer) and carry it all on the plane. The sales guys took a different airline (United). They told me, sorry, we couldn't get you on our flight. You have to fly 'Singapore Airlines'. (ha ha - on THEM).

Their flight has serious problems (United) and they had to do an unscheduled landing in China (All bathrooms brokedown). Late for connecting flight in Hong Kong and bags lost.

That night had to go to the mall under the Petronas towers to get them clothes. They had traveled in jean, t-shirts and sneakers (nice and professional). One of the guys bought $600 shoes, since he didn't understand the exchange rate. They ended up with dockers, oxford shirts, ties and shoes.

Good job on $35.
