I tried to get in contact because I had to reschedule my boat, but it was so hard. Both 12go Asia and the boat company where quit ignorant about my situation so now I paid trouble…

Was a smooth ride. Upgraded to VIP seat. Aircon could have just decrease a bit. The driver from the airport in the shutter bus was quite rude.
