=== Travel Information ===
== Budget ==


AirAsia (http://www.airasia.com) provides cheap flight from APAC countries into Malaysia. For most recent prices, check airasia.com.
=== Current Estimated Rough Budget ===


We will be trying to get discount codes from AirAsia., not sure how that'll work out.
Excluding flight


Flight price listed below includes return flight, (regular prices, checked on May 29 2011, for flight in on 14th June 2012, flight out on 18th June 2012). Early booking tend to be half the price cheaper under their promo price.
Cut off point: 70 sponsored attendees including crew and volunteers.


Flight from KLIA-LCCT to Johor might be a bit on the high side, those who are adventurous might want to travel south to Johor on train or bus.
Budget is mainly based on quite-worst-case scenario prices.
