Which terminal

Lahad Datu Airport is a regional airport, usually with a single arrivals area. When a couple of flights land together it fills up fast, so agree one exact spot to wait.

Where to wait

Put the exact spot in your Greet. Your guest sees it on their phone from the moment they land at LDU, even without signal.

  • Inside the arrivals hall, a few metres back from the doors passengers come through.
  • At one landmark you can both name: a numbered exit, a café sign or the information desk.
  • Not right at the barrier, where everyone crowds and nobody can see past the first row.

Passport control and timing

International arrivals go through passport control and customs before the arrivals hall. Domestic flights within Malaysia are usually much quicker.

Lahad Datu runs on Asia/Kuala Lumpur time. The clock at the top of this page shows the local time now.

A local welcome

Want the sign to feel local? "Selamat datang" means welcome in Malay. Put it in the line above their name.
