Actually I’m not sure where the bus terminal is. I took overnight bus from sg to hatyai straight, 15hrs because of the long queue at Thai immigration. When I reached hatyai, my connecting bus has left. So I just took a motorsai and rush to this bus terminal which leaves for park bara boat terminal.
When did they implement this no straight bus to hatyai? I only got dropped at a dfs shop at sadao, then continue on to hatyai. Very lame.
Lkw side not so bad, the worst is lipe immigration, only one man show lol....
Lipe side always angmo first then Asian.
U can buy Langkawi round trip $80 !!! Cheaper than ur hatyai bus then change here change there
airfare to langkawi always quite cheap. sometimes even cheaper than flights to penang & kl. $33 one way on scoot without checked in baggage.
Is it safe for me to book a 2.40pm flight from Hat Yai Airport if i leave Koh Lipe on the earliest timing at 9.30am?
Not recommended.do stay in hatyai for a nite.at least u wont miss ur flight.due to timing...if just something happen that day.FYI,is norm for the van driver to send parcels or things otw to the next destination.Is it safe for me to book a 2.40pm flight from Hat Yai Airport if i leave Koh Lipe on the earliest timing at 9.30am?

BTW when ur planned trip?
I went last month, got on the 9.30am ferry, reached Pak Bara Pier at around 12pm. Taking the minivan would be too risky so I took a cab from Pak Bara Pier, reached airport around 1.15pm.
Btw how much the cab cost?
The hatyai city to koh lipe cheaper than langkawi to koh lipe even though journey more than double? Anyone can confirm? I check 12goasia and its only 25 sgd for 2h van 2h boat. Abit unbelievable

FYI, those traveling public minivan, with big luggage please purchase another seat or confirm with the operator cause the rear usually used for goods not for passenger luggage.I assume the van will pack many ppl la. 1k baht is 40+ tho

1 way speed boat from Pak Bara to Koh Lipe is already 650 baht. I will want my trip to be confirm than cheap price go there nothing is confirm.
FYI:
Pak Bara to Koh Lipe is speed boat, which is very jumpy.
Langkawi to Koh Lipe is ferry, very smooth. (operate a period of time only)
Once you reach Koh Lipe, you will transfer to long tail boat to the shore. (there is 2 jetty in Langkawi)
