waiting for travel agent to give reply....

hope can get fast reply....

need to catch flight ticket asap.....to get cheap flight....uhuhuh

perhentian kecil and besar, which resort or chalet has better beach for swimming. fine white sand, crystal clear water ...

Quite easy. But better get contact in advance.

Yesterday took taxi from jetty to KB airport. RM65.

I wonder if it will be cheaper if I walk out a little bit from the airport and find one

i've been doing some research on the boats to & from the island.
There are boats which departs hourly to the island, correct?
And returning from the island is it true that it's fixed at 8am, 12pm & 4pm?


On another note, I just remembered that East coast weekends are different from here Gonna have to pay more for my accommodation d. I'm gonna walk in a find one of the budget places

honestly I cant help but recommend Abdul Chalet in Perhentian Besar. Staffs are very friendly and informal. You may snorkel directly infront of the beach or take a short walk to the much more expensive resort next door (1 minute walk ). price is very reasonable.
I think munkeyflo will agree.

my package agent ...offer me the taxi at RM 80....

i still undecided....whether to book early.....or just wait for the day.....

is it a proper taxi or kereta sapu?

they charge by car right.....not per person?

last time I kena sapu for rm100/taxi jetty to airport. lol.

omg....that time ...u didnt nego?

Err. Get a few boat contacts/travel agents and deal with them directly. Otherwise, the airport has a lot of ppl offering to bring you to and fro Perhentian island. Everyone has their own contacts

Yea, pretty much depart every other hour. Many boats into the island. Coming out I'm not sure, but there are some coming out at 10am also. Basically if the 3 times that you stated.

Yup, Abdul Chalets rooms were much nicer than expected. Toilet also was hugeeee.

Yea, they charge by car. The van that we took was at RM110/van RM130/van from jetty to airport.

Edit: Wrong price.

for how many people in the van?

my trip...just for three person only..

how was the traffic from jetty to airport? is it using highway....or normal road?

any contacts for the van?

If 3 people then just take taxi good enough.

Normal coastal road from jetty to airport. Traffic not much but coastal road lor, no highway.

Will msg you when I get it.

hopefully I'll be able to find boats that leave the island between 12 & 4pm, else have to leave early and wait it out for my flight

What time is your flight? Better to be early than late.

We took 12 noon boat out, our flight supposedly 6pm. AA delayed 4 hours until 10pm -.-

wah kesian long wait

that's what I'm trying to avoid, less waiting time and maximize my time on the island
My flight time is the same as yours, I can take the 4pm boat out if I'm feeling crazy, reach the airport ngam ngam But don't think I will want to do that

Hahah. You can do that la. But still better be earlier than sorry. We lepak at Kuala Besut until around 3-4pm only left for airport.

anything to see/eat in Kuala Besut?

Nothing special. Got one stall selling coconut shake, but no more stock when we were there. There are a few places to makan.

thanks!
sounds like a very small town!

uhuhu....regarding mh370...n malindo air....

my father kind of disagree....for me to travel back by flight...

i unable to travel back by bus...due to the travel time not suitable...

only two trip to shah alam....at 9.00 am n 9.00 pm....
