KANGAR, Oct 13 (Bernama) -- The ferry timetable for the Langkawi-Kuala Perlis-Langkawi route will be revised from Oct 17, with trips departing earlier or later due to shallow channels from silt buildup at the Kuala Perlis Passenger Ferry Terminal.
Konsortium Ferry Line Ventures Sdn Bhd operations manager Lt Commander (Rtd) Norhafiz Abdul Wahid said 18 ferry trips from Langkawi to Kuala Perlis on Oct 17 and 18, as well as from Oct 20 to 28, would experience revised departure times, while 16 trips from Kuala Perlis to Langkawi during the same dates would also be affected.
“Information about the new departure times will be communicated via email or SMS to passengers who purchased tickets online, and for those who bought tickets at the counter, updates will be posted on the Cuti Cuti Langkawi Facebook page,” he said in a statement today.
Norhafiz said passengers who purchased tickets online could change their travel dates by contacting the Cuti Cuti Langkawi Customer Service Centre at 012-7327174, whereas passengers who bought tickets at the counter could make changes directly at the terminal counter.
He said the minimum sea depth for operation had been increased from 1.0 metres to 1.2 metres to ensure the safety of ferries and passengers.
