Lomprayah High Speed Ferries Co Ltd operates the Thapdaorai catamaran service, a high-speed sea link used by travelers moving between Thailand's mainland piers and popular island destinations. Lomprayah is one of Thailand's established ferry operators, known for running modern catamaran vessels on the country's busiest coastal and island routes.



About the Thapdaorai Catamaran


The Thapdaorai catamaran is part of Lomprayah's high-speed fleet, designed to carry passengers quickly and comfortably across open water. Catamarans of this type are typically favored over slower conventional boats because they cut down on crossing times, which is especially useful for travelers connecting onward to buses, minivans, or private transfers on the same day.



Who This Service Suits


This Lomprayah High Speed Ferries Thapdaorai catamaran connection is a practical option for travelers heading toward Thailand's Gulf or Andaman coast islands. Exact departure and arrival points, sailing frequency, and journey duration can vary by season, so it's best to confirm these details when booking rather than relying on general assumptions.



Combining Your Journey


Many travelers pair a Lomprayah catamaran crossing with an onward bus or minivan transfer to reach their final destination. If you're planning a wider island-hopping itinerary, you may also want to check ferry options on the Koh Phangan ferry route, which is commonly combined with other Gulf of Thailand crossings.



What to Expect Onboard


Lomprayah's catamarans generally offer indoor seating, luggage storage, and basic onboard facilities suited to short and medium-length sea crossings. As with any ferry service, conditions can be affected by weather, so it's worth allowing some flexibility around your connecting transport.



Booking Conditions


Ticket prices, exact schedules, and seat availability for the Lomprayah High Speed Ferries Thapdaorai catamaran depend on the date and season of travel. Booking in advance is recommended during peak travel periods, when demand for popular island routes tends to be higher.

Frequently asked questions

How do I unlock my account now?

Wait, and try again. Every lock lifts on its own — a minute the first time, and never more than an hour however many attempts have failed. There is nothing to click and nobody to contact.

If you have forgotten your password, do not keep guessing: each wrong attempt makes the next wait longer. Use Forgot password instead. Resetting your password gets you straight back in.

My account locked but I never tried to sign in

Then someone else was trying to sign in as you, and the lock did its job — it stopped them.

Your account is safe: a lock means the attempts failed. Nobody got in. You do not have to do anything, and the lock will lift on its own.

We would still recommend two things:

  • Change your password, especially if you use the same one on another website.
  • Add an authenticator app in your account security settings, so a password alone is never enough to sign in as you.

If you get these repeatedly, contact us and we will look into it.

What is the difference between a locked and a blocked account?

Locked is automatic and temporary. It happens after repeated failed sign-in attempts and it lifts by itself — within a minute in most cases.

Blocked is a decision made by our team, and it does not lift on its own. If your account is blocked you will need to contact us; waiting will not change it, and neither will resetting your password.

If you are not sure which applies to you, get in touch and we will tell you.

Why is my account locked?

We lock an account for a short time after several failed sign-in attempts in a row. It is an automatic safety measure: it stops someone else guessing your password, and it happens whether or not the person typing was you.

You do not need to contact us. The lock lifts on its own — see How long am I locked out for?

How long am I locked out for?

The first lock is one minute. If sign-in keeps failing after that, each further lock lasts longer:

  • 1st lock — 1 minute
  • 2nd lock — 5 minutes
  • 3rd lock — 15 minutes
  • 4th lock and after — 1 hour

An hour is the longest you will ever be locked out. You get five attempts before the first lock, and as soon as you sign in successfully everything resets — the next time you mistype, you start again at one minute.

How can I get transportation to the Pier (Phuket) from the airport?

You can pick up a taxi from the airport just outside Phuket airport terminal, though please be informed it is a busy place! 

 

Alternatively, you can organize your transfer through us on step 2 of your ferry booking process. The prices are very reasonable. For up to 3 people we have private taxis and for groups of 4-8 people, we can arrange a minivan pick-up service.
