I think this one is the cheapest option :)
This gets me to KL on 16th night (0015 on 17th). This means I will need accommodation for 16th night, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th night. That's 5 nights.

There are no airasia flights on 17th. The second option will get me to KL on 18th night (0015 on 19th), making me miss the first day of the FUDCon. I would therefore prefer the first option if the accommodation is possible.
