It all worked out in the end, but it was super stressful. As stated in the booking confirmation, you should write them in advance for the hotel pick up. I did that, nobody answered for 24hours. Only after someone from our hotel called, they answered. They told the hotel staff that a pick up was not possible, we should come to the town. I then told them that we would come directly to the pier, makes more sense. Then they said they could pick us up at the hotel. I send them a picture of the location at the interception of the main street and marked the spot where we would wait. ATP wrote ok, we will come 8-8:15 am. I asked them if that was enough time to get to the pier, bc we needed to catch the ferry at 9 am and it is a 40mins drive. They confirmed, time would be not an issue. I wrote them again in the morning that we would be on time. No one ever read this message. Unfortunately no one came at 8:15 am. I tried calling them, no one picked up. Finally I was able to reach them under another number, person had no idea what I was talking about. It was 8:28 am by then. Turns out, the driver just drove past us and stopped somewhere else. He drove back after the ATP person called him. We then drove to the pier and told him we need to get the ferry, he was driving super slow, but we still made it. At the pier, we had no information how to purchase the ticket. In the end, our driver bought them but did not tell us about it. Not our first time in SEA and usually everything works out, I trust these people that they know what they are doing, but communication was horrible.

Driver was great, safe and welcoming. Bus was very good, clean, and comfortable. Driver arrived an hour earlier than planned which was unexpected and slightly inconvenient, but otherwise all was good.

Travelling by bus essentials

  • If you are planning to travel during the high season, weekends, or national holidays, booking your bus tickets in advance is highly recommended. The demand is at its highest, yet very often, the number of coaches serving the route remains the same. The earlier you reserve your seat, the better. On some routes, you need to secure your ticket more than a month in advance; on others, a couple-of-days advanced booking is enough. During such periods, try to book online beforehand whenever possible, as showing up at the bus station without a ticket may result in many-hours of waiting in the queue or leave you downright stranded.
  • VIP, 1st, Gold, and similar bus tickets are the most expensive option, but they provide a higher level of comfort. Normally the price of such tickets will include wide soft reclining seats, blankets, water and snacks or lunch, and sometimes some toiletries. Upper-class buses travel faster, make fewer stops during the route, and normally provide more spacious seating to their passengers and a better travel experience.
  • Not all buses have an on-board toilet, but generally, for all trips longer than three hours, all operators schedule a bathroom and/or a lunch stop. While operators definitely do their best to keep on-board toilets clean, the smell may be an issue sometimes. For longer trips, booking a seat a bit farther from the toilet may be a good idea. Also, using bathroom stops for your toilet needs is always better than trying to find your balance in an on-board toilet on the run.
  • If you travel by an air-con bus, make sure to pack layers. A hoodie, a warm scarf, or a beanie hat may prove a good idea. Air-conditioning on buses tends to be excessive, and running nose and sore throats abound after even not the longest bus rides.
  • Always use the security belts even if your bus ride attendant or driver does not insist on it. Your safety comes first – for you, for sure. All buses normally are equipped with security belts, but they may be fixed behind your seat. Take time to find the belt and fix it appropriately.
  • To avoid being disturbed by overhead lights, switched on during stops even at night, and too loud music or sound from the on-board entertainment system, have earplugs and a sleeping mask at hand.
  • As a courtesy to other passengers, avoid using strong perfumes or smelly foods. Some foods like cheeses or durians are forbidden to take on-board – check in advance. Alcohol is also prohibited on the majority of buses.
  • Note that if the bus requires refuelling en-route, passengers will be asked to get off the bus. Operators are not allowed to refuel with passengers on board due to safety reasons. Usually, it takes from 5 to 10 minutes and is often combined with a toilet/lunch stop.
  • If not stated otherwise in your tickets, arrive at the bus station 20-30 minutes before departure. It will give you enough time to find the departure platform and check-in. For international trips, you may need more time for check-in and border formalities.
