The free introductory period is over and from today, September 7, you&#8217;ll have to pay to ride, as it should be. With this Penang Port has released the fare table for the ferry service.<\/p>\n<p>The fare is RM2 for adult passengers, one way, and it&#8217;s half of this (RM1) for children aged five to 12 (kids below this age ride for free). As for two-wheeled vehicles, it&#8217;s RM2 for bicycles (the same as if you were to board on foot) and RM2.50 for motorcycles.<\/p>\n<p>These fares are for a single trip, so a return trip would be RM4, or RM5 for motorcycles. Unlike the big old ferries, the new one doesn&#8217;t take cars.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2023\/07\/New-Penang-ferry-630x367.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a commuter crossing the sea everyday, the monthly pass is worth having, as there&#8217;s substantial savings to be had. To be exact, you save 50% from now till December 31, 2023. Next year, it&#8217;s 30% savings. Note that the monthly pass is only for pedestrians who are Malaysian citizens. It&#8217;s valid for 60 trips a month. Apply at the information counters at both terminals.<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Launched last month, four units of the new ferries with the names Teluk Bahang, Teluk Kampi, Teluk Duyung and Teluk Kumbar are operating 68 two-way trips a day from Pangkalan Raja Tun Uda (PRTU) on the island to Pangkalan Sultan Abdul Halim (PSAH) in Butterworth.<\/p>\n<p>The frequency is every 20 minutes during peak hours and every 30 minutes during non-peak hours. The new ferry has a passenger capacity of 150 and can also take in 50 motorcycles per trip.<\/p>\n<p>Looking to sell your car?
