The bus left late and gave no indication of what exact location we would be dropped off in Patong, the journey was average.

Bus station was easy to find. I arrived a bit earlier than the booked time but they let me ride the bus anyways. The trip took longer because of the traffic.

I ordered a 9-seater van because we had a lot of luggage and wanted a more spacious comfort. We got a 4x4 when we arrived! We still made it!

Departure at time, arrival a little bit delayed. Good to begin the trip from the terminal to have a seat. Most practical and economic way to go to the airport. Be careful, stop at the airport in front of the internal flight terminal.

I ordered transfer from Phuket city (Other hotels) to the Phuket airport. Since there was no place where to indicate my hotel name, I contacted the support team and wanted to find out how I can inform about my pickup location. They responded quickly and sent additional confirmation e-mail that they have contacted the driver with my hotel address. Great experience, the van was almost empty and cost me half the price it would take for casual taxi.

Driver was 15 minutes late to pick us up. Then as we were driving to the airport he goes to a pier and says he is going to wait for 25 minutes to pick up more passengers, even though we needed to catch a flight. We told him no as we didn’t want to miss our flight. Overall, we got to the airport on time for our flight but I wouldn’t recommend.
