Dear friends..
latest info from my friend tht when up on 17-19 March 2014.
bus/coach do not go up to 1st world hotel bus terminal for the period of 2 years frm now.
All buses will drop passengers down at mushroom farm.temporary counters are all there.
passengers need to hand carry their belonging to board feerer bus frm mushrooms farm to 1st world.
duration accordingly to my friend abt 20-30mins.
Nightmare as per my friend.
when reach , all ppl are blur as per new arrangemnt.
everybody rush to bus ( only 1). Poor old aunty uncle hand carryin their luggage all tryin to board bus.
no genting staff assisting. raining that day, floor wet. ppl pushing ppl. some fell n fall.
As per my friend, its so sad to see this.
When up genting finally, alot of connection close due to renovation.
ggoin up from 1st world to highland hotel is more troublsme as compare before.
As my friend is gg on a Monday(off peak).
He cannt imagine if is a peak period.
He advise ppl LEAVING genting bk Singapore.
Go down early to wait for yr bus, cs nw u have to catch feeder bus down Mushroom farm area.
its not convient anymore ggg up genting anymore.
Dear friends...do take note.
Ps. : according to my friend. the managemnt doesnt seems bother by this stupid arrangment. transportation to n fro doesnt seem to be their matters.its v tedious nw juz to reach hotel esp. the transfer n to squeeze with ppl catching the feeder bus..
its chaotic...
Chaotic? Non-communication? Welcone to Boleh Land. Things has always been done this way there.
When we booked our coach tickets last week, the coach company here already informed us the coach will stop at mushroom farm, not outside FWH lobby like previously, as the Genting mgmt put a stop to that within the first few days.
Instead of taking the free feeder bus, you can spend RM10 or RM20 to take cab (ride is only 3 mins). Or u can walk..no big deal unless u are old uncle or auntie.
Earlier, I was also blur like sotong about the new arrangements on the first day, but managed to find out the details when i went down to check things out with a croupier whom I made frens with. I remember posting the info in this forum.
When in Boleh Land, you have to adopt the Malaysian do-it-yourself attitude. No one is going to spoon feed u anything there. Network, make friends, and enjoy yourself.
