cnx355 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 20 hours ago, balo said: Should have been half the price for a one way ticket , 600 baht . But I guess they need to earn enough money to pay for this vessel . We have yet to seen a picture of it , will it be a comfortable ride , western standards...? 2400 baht instead of taking the regular bus route and pay 500 baht total . If you need to save time then fine , if not I don't see the point. I agree with most people wrote. I would see a 1200 B for a car + driver passenger 500 B No ferry business normally expect to make money in the first year but they should build a customer base first and the adjust their pricing .

Do they have a picture of the exact vessel they plan to use on the innaugural runs across the gulf? At B2400 per person for a return ticket Pattaya to HH and back, is that exepensive?. For a group of 4 going for the day, thats B9600. . I have no plans to ever use this new service. What do those that have thought about this service have to say? ultra expensive price will drop when other companys get in...better to fly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainhornblower Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Seatrans and Raja ferries that operate from Donsak to Koh Samui charge a flat 130 baht for foot passengers each way - the distance is no where near as far but the trip is about 1.5 hours. This service just will not succeed at those rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like the boat's going to follow the coast all the way there. 100km in 90 minutes means an AVERAGE of 66 k p h.. No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digbeth Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 1 hour ago, ratcatcher said: I think you will find that the Thai word for pier (in English) looks like this - tâa Saphan Pla, means "fish bridge". There are several located around the country . A fish bridge is a structure built out to sea.. some even call the Bali Hai pier สะพานปลา too Most of the many piers in Rayong that goes to Koh Samed seem to refer to themselves as สะพาน ท่า is literally port Airport ท่าอากาศยาน ท่ารถทัวร์ coach terminal But that's being pedantic using both ท่า or สะพาน is understood But looks like it's the one down town in Huahin is the one that's being used by fishing boats... not exactly equipped as passenger terminal compared to Bali Hai on Pattaya side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
