TLDR : Answer Summary
The cheapest transport options from Patong to Ao Nang involve taking a series of local transport methods: starting with a songthaew to Phuket market, then a songthaew to Phuket bus station number 2, followed by a bus to Krabi, and finally another songthaew to Ao Nang. For traveling from Ao Nang to Koh Lanta, the recommended route is to take a songthaew to Krabi bus station and then a bus to Koh Lanta. Alternative methods include booking a mini bus via a travel agent or using ferry services, though ferry schedules may vary. For travel planning, resources such as local apps like Grab or travel websites are advised.

Cheapest way would be buses and song teaws.

Patong to phuket market by song teaw

Song teaw to Phuket bus station number 2

Bus to Krabi, Then Song teaw to Ao Nang.

Ao Nang to Koh Lanta

Song teaw to Krabi Bus station bus to Koh Lanta.

3 other ways.

1) Go see a travel agent in Patong (if there is any left) and get mini bus to Ao Nang from Phuket. Most mini buses depart from bus station number 1.

2) Ferry from Phuket town. No idea of schedules before could not go directly usually ferry to Phi Phi first then another ferry to Ao Nang or Railey

3) Use one of the apps grab etc

No idea of costs now been a while since have done.

Most adventurous and fun way is bus and song teaw no good if you are carrying a lot of luggage though.
