Genting FAQ - Part 3

[kevinlaikf]

Aerobus used to go up to Genting but currently I didn’t see any services though.

 

[givansingapore]

I checked. Air tickets from Singapore to KL is cheaper than these bus tickets to Genting Highlands

My last minute 707 return trip bus for May bought from Shopee is $54 after $8 Shopee voucher and $10 coins deduction.

Just back frm gh ytd friday. Casino nw can smoke. Mac is open till 2am, then will reopen at 6.30am. Old casino many tables nt open, carribean was mostly closed, 2 tables at sky gold open till abt 4am. 2 tables open at old casino on thur nite till abt 12midnite. Night time hard to find food as no rm service anymore in highland hotel. Only starbucks 24hr, n some light food at 1st world cafe. N cup noodle frm convenience store.

Macdonalds nowadays open at 7am instead. Breakfast times are the most chaotic. Be prepared to wait easily half an hour or more. They have many food preparers inside the kitchen but only 1 server. She has to to give out the food at the counter, deliver personally to those with table orders and also collect payment for cash orders. Just 1 person to do the job while the rest are inside the kitchen chatting happily. I remember ordering at 7.30am and getting the food only at around 8.05am.

The tonnes of customers are the Genting croupiers and other staff. They should really allocate more servers and cashiers to alleviate the crowds.

If you do not work in a BCP team, you wont know the difficulty of work arrangement..
As long one team member kena, whole team kena rested for 3-4 days.

So most management will have dedicated teams that dont inter-mingled.
When one team kena, the backup team will roll up, and so forth. Site disinfected.
With such arrangement.. manpower is at bare minimum if you wish to have zero disruption in retail business.

BCP: Business Continuity Planning.

WTS had such bus+hotel booking.

Once you got there, check in to your rooms, take a break, later go straight to SkyCasino Membership counters get a free membership card, Singaporean likely get Silver card, whch give u access to silver club, and have shorter priority queue in cable car.

Every 6-9 points you get from Casino games or affiliated shops, you could redeem for meals.
The Prawn dumpling noodle not bad, I loved their ZhaJiang Noodle.

If you a big timer gambler, accumulated 300 pts get you Gold Card, go change Silver to Gold card.

The Gold-and-above cafe at the VIP cafe got better 9GP western meal set. I recalled its Chicken Chop?
Long time ago, the best cheap 3-6GP western food at New Orleans cafe closed down at old casino many years ago.

You likely got free rooms messages via SMS in the coming months. Especially Birthday month.

The prawn dumpling noodle from where ?

From Skycasino main hall café, kiosk print out the 9GP (used to be 6GP) voucher.

2017's picture, from same cafe, Peace Cafe in Sky Casino.

2019's picture

Breakfast or Late Supper, other foods not selling, but porridges always around. Same 9GP.

There's actually no more silver club already in Genting to my knowledge. The Sky Gold is extended to the former Sky Silver Club even before the border is closed due to the pandemic.

Yes. A pity. It is quiet and not crowded and I use to go to the cafe to eat and surf the net. Remember could connect to free wifi of some Dragon Room or something.

i like to book directly with rwgenting.com website
i feel thats the safest..

u book with agoda or booking is 3rd party
book through travel agency they give u 1 peice of paper
u go queue up then they give u room
i dont wanna deal with that kinda nonsense
just book direct with rwgenting on their website no drama

if using first world hotel, can self-check in at machine
dont need to queue up

Genting SkyWorlds Hotel or first world hotel
is not bad

those 5-star hotel abit too expensive i feel is overprice
