Everything ran like clockwork. Upgraded to VIP Cabin as my co traveller isn’t the best at travel by boat. Well worth the extra 200baht each

Firstly, I bought a more expensive fast ferry ticket, but instead of taking 45 minutes, we took a regular ferry, almost an hour. Secondly, we were supposed to leave at 11:00, but we actually left at 11:30... hence the lower-than-expected rating. I should have paid for the regular ferry, not the more expensive fast ferry.
