In the 21-second video, @yaya.tasha displayed the autopay machine, starting with her vehicle's plate number. The machine revealed that her car entered the Preferred Parking area at 3:39 AM on December 31, 2024, and remained there for a total of 13 days and 8 hours.
When she selected the 'Pay' option, the machine showed a jaw-dropping fee of RM2,084. In her caption, she humorously expressed her mixed feelings about the situation, writing, "Not sure if I should be happy or sad."
The incident highlights the importance of considering parking options, particularly at busy airports like KLIA, where premium parking facilities can come at a steep price. For those planning extended trips, researching alternatives like long-term parking or ride-sharing services could help save significant costs.
