Hello guys! Visa run coming up mid January and I’m currently checking flight options from Surat Thani to Penang.
Seems like quite a few routes have been canceled and looks like I cannot make it to Penang the same day from Koh Phangan (I HATE the mini bus trip of horror and rather fly, even if that means 4 flights in total).
Saw there is a direct flight from Phuket late evening, so considering that as well. Usually I flew to Bangkok and got an evening flight to Penang from there. Now last flight of the day departs 13:30.
Anyone living on Tao/Phangan/Samui:
What is your current preferred means of transport to Penang? Maybe I’m missing something?
