Should not be a problem then, since you have package..

There are many company providing transport over to Samui. Just see the efficiency of them and then see what time you'll arrive there.

I rented scooter there and had no problem.
Got to leave your passport though... and u might want to find a famous shop, dont go for the shady one.

BTW Koh Phanggan has nothing, Koh Tao is much much better

Planning to go Koh Tao next, but Phangan wasn't bad at all, kinda love it there.

btw Airasia had resumed flights to URT (Surat Thani) from KUL already.

Flights are MON - WED - FRI - SUN
flight time is 1.5 hrs
to URT is 12:30, reach at 13:00
to KUL is 13:30, reach at 15:55

Tapee Pier is less than 1 hour from Airport

Ferry to Nathon Pier Ko Samui is RM78 one way, leaves at 15:30. From Nathon to Chaweng is roughly 1.5 hours ride.

The return trip is a lot more hectic as you need to get the 8am ferry back to Tapee, as the next one is 12:45 and you'll miss your flight. Maybe stay at Lipa Noi beach on your last day.

I reckon if u can afford it flying direct is still the better option as no need transit here and there and you get some really good beaches near airport.

Direct flight is too expensive, my option is either fly to surat thani (but limited flight hour) or take bus to hatyai and go from there
