This morning board Luxury Coach 28 seaters, no lower deck seat. Very big seat and comfortable. Board at 7am at harbour front coach bay, reach Melaka at 11pm+
I hope you meant 11am+ :oops:

Happy holiday in Melaka! :grin:

How's the crowd situation in Melaka? Or is it like a dead town?
Melaka is never dead. Maybe not as crowded as preC19, but there're visitors from other states as well, especially weekends.

I only went opposite my Airbnb for lunch, many restaurants are closed.
Last time I came also CNY day 2/3, attractions and jonker got many people.

You are right, typo, 11am+
The coach goes to vista point to pick a few more, before going to 2nd link.

Feel like spending some RM in Melaka.

My next leave is during the March school holidays though... :frown:

My fear of school holiday crowds 🥵
That time took 8H to reach PD made me so scared of the school holiday jam.

Then the next one to Melaka took almost 6H.

Now really a bit of a phobia for the jam during school holidays. :frown:

Other than the jam, there's also the higher possibility of encountering crowds when you just want to run a quick errand or have a peaceful meal...

I think for Melaka, the latest I've heard of was leaving SG at breakfast time and reaching in time for dinner. Normally it'd be by lunchtime, still got time to grab lunch before going to check in to the hotel.

Morning coach usually reach around noon time, hotel check in is at 3pm. Lot of time for lunch and Jalan Jalan before check in.
Double tree hotel check in is at 4pm 😅

Don't know, I was at the lobby, try to check the price for 1 night, then notice check in time is 4pm.
You stay there before right? Last time check in at what time?
Definitely not 4pm. Either checked in after we arrived with Luxury, or after our lunch which shouldn't have been after 3pm. But again, that's a regular weekday, hardly anyone else in the lobby.
