if im going langkawi from penang... from what i googled, i see that there is only ferry morning and the other one at 5pm ... the cost of ferry written in webste is rm35 but when i called Bahagia express in penang, they say is rm 60 one way... anyone have experience taking ferry from penang? i would be taking AA on the 10th morning.... will reach penang 7.45am... how far is the ferry place from the penang airport? will i be able to make it for the ferry to langkawi in the morning?

From airport to the ferry place, and if you travel at 8am on weekdays, most likely will take you 1hour ++.

if you travel on weekend, then maybe 30 to 45mins can reach liao

so if your ferry is after 10am then u are most likely safe. If before that then quite dangerous.

3D2N & flying to Penang & going to langkawi..Don't waste your time-lah.. Just stay in Penang can liao..Lotsa food & etc . No point staying near feringghi area bcos the water is polluted!

Just stay in budget hotels in penang such as Tune & etc...or if got RM150 & above go for Northam all suites..probably the cheapest suites style hotel liao..
