Pre covid ferry rebate rolling give NN chip, now is win lose also take back the chip very smelly, means still paying full fare roll 500 is for a chance win back 50.
Last time anytime want go just call give name pp number easy peasy last minute also can now is have to book online with email, some old folks may not be tech savvy no email or dont know english how to book can still call in but pay 20 extra leh, booking is a hassle.
Previously can ferry up both side from TMFT or HF, now have to go all the way to the birds dont lay eggs only TMFT, for those stay west is super far. Also last time can still catch last ferry 8.30pm now last is 7.20pm, finish work 6pm want go timing super tight, have to check in 1hr before departure means be there by 6.20pm cmi.
Come back HF only once every Fri, should schedule at least twice example like LJ last time Thurs night out Fri morning back, for those dont want take ferry or cannot take due to motion seasick etc.
Was excited for AP to be back, but when feel like go think ferry journey and travel time very sian dont feel like going anymore. From home 1hr travel to TMFT, immigration wait another 1hr, ferry another 1.5hr, to and fro = total 6-7hrs shag out, somemore still have to go Nongsa transit another ferry cannot go direct waste more time. For nostalgia sake may go but only when AP back HF can direct walk up big ship no need take ferry. For me convenience and comfort is priority so cabin is a must not for sleep just to put stuff and use as personal toilet, so price is 78 cheapest online book HF rate + 90 cheapest weekend rate no window cabin = 168 more expensive than just pay day 150 go IR.
AP still have lots of room to improve in order to entice more punters up, simple logic cheap and convenient sure more will go, otherwise there's always other alternatives.
