If you stay near Jurong or Yishun, maybe you can consider WTS as they pick up at Yishun Mrt there then follow by IMM iirc. Tour bus got a guide also. So far so good

 

[pigpigoink]

thanks thanks for the reply

There is a certain amount of risk taking the midnight bus up to Genting.

Felt like going to HK-SZ-MO in Dec.
Staying in HK, food eat HK, Gaming take ferry to MO, shopping 3C at SZ HQB, shopping clothing at HK Mongkok or SZ DongMen via LuoHu MRT border crossing.

Macau open border tourism policy still not clearly defined yet.. flip flop now...

If epidemic scaled up, might just stick with Genting or Cruise.

We (me and my elders) used to travel with WTS, but ever since they required us to change bus at some ulu place before go up to Genting (because some of their buses are not single deck), we have opted to travel 707inc ever since. Frankly, both are equally good. Just that it is very inconvenient for old folks to switch buses.

PS: We have never tried those better suite travel from Transtar because we would have opted to travel by private taxi with those kinda money.

One of my closed friends has been travelling to Okada Manila, which is fairly close to the airport. He shared with us that the time taken is much shorter than travelling to Genting and Macau. I may visit the place some time in future too.

If you go to Resorts World Manila, you can use your Genting card and earn points.

Hmm, i chose WTS is solely for convenience nia haha, so far i only encounter being ask to change bus in 2nd link checkpoint in Malaysia, the initial bus we board only ferry us to check point nia with WTS. But hor, after using those 7seater Private transport, i think i wont go back to coach liao. Albeit slightly ex, but very convenient and not rushing. Suitable for older people bah.

If you book early, you wont have this problem. Try booking 1 mth ahead of travel dates.

When the bus capacity not full, they need to add up stragglers from all over SG pickup points.
They used part time drivers from JB branch to pick them in SG n gather in msia checkpoints.
They probably allowed 1-2 vacancy.

I had encountered few times if i booked under 1-2 weeks of the travel dates during non-peaks.

Transtar also same issues.
Transtar had a occasional benefits of free upgrades from ClubZ to Solitaire, only downside of change bus uphill..
i had no complains as Solitaire more spacy.
