Pangkor Laut Resort - Transfer...!
Am looking at booking a BAH to a resort in KL (Pangkor Laut Resort) next Jan/Feb
The BAH booking page states 'free' transfers are only available for arrivals before 0900 - but the 'new' BA service doesn't arrive KL til 1730
Phoned BA earlier and the kind lady was stumped
I have emailed the resort for transfer detail, but dont expact that i'll get a reply for a couple of days
Thoughts?

Yes, either see if BAH can do a night at Sama Sama or my preference would be to do a night in the Hilton KL (easy reached on the train) and then get them to collect you from there. You can pop out for dinner and a stretch of the legs then. It's less distance so I'm sure they'd be fine with that

The BAH description states a '4 hr ' transfer
Just astounding that they offer a free transfer - which is unattainable based on flight times
Have priced up a trip involving 1 night on arrival and , 2 nights in KL before flying back
But was curious if any of the brethren had visited using BAH?

When I spoke to the BAH agent we were both ignorant of options. Will call tomorrow being better informed

I suspect you may be best to arrange the hotels with BAH and then confirm the pick up point and time with the hotel directly
I haven't been but I lived in Singapore and quite a few friends went and were always positive. IIRC the full board type options were good value

My wife and I were booked to stay at the Pangkor Laut Resort whilst we were on our three days off in Kuala Lumpur on a trip, it just so happens that we had the owners onboard in First Class, lets just say that we were well looked after, one of the perks of the job.
