EVENKEEL Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I saw the video a few days ago. Looks good 1500 thb for one reclining chair. The cabins are a bit pricey as is car transport at 2250 for 1 vehicle/ one way. 22 hr trip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, Sattahip was always going to be a challenge for passengers, a reliable service would have been much more attractive for freight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was more comfortable, beautiful and faster than going on the bus, but the price was much higher. I guess that's what made it unsuccessful. I think the pier being some way out of HH didn't help matters. We took a friend of ours who was staying in Pattaya over to HH and he planned to take the ferry back rather trying to get bus or taxi from Chonburi. Had to ask several people to try and find out where the pier was, can see many just not bothering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Aside from any hassles about the piers, from my reading, the amount of cancelled ferries and their no refund policy was a huge factor in discouraging people from booking & using. A voucher to use later doesn't really help most people, as plans already ruined, and may not be able to use later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as vehicle transport I think it's quite a bit too much. Plus an entire day lost due to travel. I'd very much like to try the ferry but when others come into the picture planning a happy trip gets harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcelV Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 All these ferry routes are dead in the water. Captain Steve has recently retired, so no chance of any restart in the near future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, like the guy and always supported him on this, despite the "tall poppy syndrome" rampant on this and any similar topix, eg ferang 'have a go ya mug'. Not so supportive of name dropping tho!

Popular Post kinyara Posted May 12 Popular Post Share Posted May 12 Where is " Leaver " ? C'mon ADMIN resurrect him for this thread, it was one of his favourite subjects. Bob Smith, GeorgeGeorgia and Jim Tripper are poor imitations of our Covid era doom puppet. He can't have left for Vietnam, they still haven't introduced the long term visa option he tried to convince us they'd bring. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
