There was a delay of more than 1.5 hours!!!
The departure time on the tickets didn’t apparently correspond to the real departure time

The Ferry was late. The ferry was hot inside with fans in front only. The windows were to high to see any scenery but the sky. Apart from that is was a good crossing.

the Greeter in Gili Air does not ask all fo the questins and points he needs at once : he had to return to me 3 times (after checking in at his desk!) to :
- register me
- then ask for pier /visa fees
- then ask for passport copy
= that creates stress...
IN THE MEAN TIME
- he did not forget to make me pay 200 K for a "private driver"
- he forgets to give the seasick tablets
THEN he sends us under the heavy rain to board in = he could have organized, with the heavy weather and rain we had, to make sure everybody had disembark from the previous boat before sending us under the heavy rain

They said it would take 2 hours on the website. It took 4 hours and they stopped in two other islands.

We had air conditioning throughout the trip. Overall the seats were comfortable and seemed to have more leg room than other ships.

We left Gili Air 45 minutes late and arrived in Padang Bai 1 hour early. We'll leave you to imagine how fast the boat was going ???? it could have been quite impressive on the first hectic part of the journey (albeit on calm seas)...
we'll take off one star for the lack of information on the delay, the pick-up at the port, and the progress of the trip.
We did, however, benefit from the air-conditioning on board and the quality of the boat (very recent).

Parti de Gili Air avec 45 minutes de retard et arrivés a Padang Bai avec 1h d’avance. On vous laisse imaginer a quelle allure allait le bateau 😅 cela pouvait etre assez impressionnant sur la première partie mouvementée du trajet (pourtant sur mer calme)…
nous enlevons une etoile pour le manque d’information sur le retard, la prise en charge au port, et le déroulement du trajet.
Nous avons tout de même la climatisation a bord ainsi que la qualité du bateau (très récent).
