Pros and cons of taking bus from Penang to Singapore
Pros: The bus journey from Penang to Singapore offers competitive pricing, typically ranging from MYR 90-140, significantly cheaper than flights. Most operators provide generous luggage allowances (up to 20kg) and reasonable onboard amenities including reclining seats, air conditioning, and basic refreshments. The route offers convenient drop-off points in Singapore with easy access to public transportation networks. Multiple daily departures (8 pm-11 pm) provide flexibility for travelers.
