Satun to Langkawi Tickets | Book Transport Online

Q: What's the boarding process on the day of my trip?

At the pier listed on your ticket, find staff from your ferry operator and show your e-ticket QR code from your phone. They'll give you a sticker or boarding pass and direct you to your boat. Most piers offer luggage help—look for staff in company uniforms near boats or booths.

Q: Do I need to print my ferry ticket or is mobile ok?

No, printing isn't required. Just show the e-ticket QR code from your phone (or other device) to the ferry operator staff at the pier listed on your ticket—they'll issue a sticker and/or boarding pass and direct you to your boat. Prefer paper? Register as a member to print your e-tickets and VAT receipts.

Q: What happens if my ferry is cancelled due to weather?

If bad weather forces the ferry operator to cancel your trip, you can choose a full refund or reschedule to a new date. Refunds only apply when the operator cancels—not if you choose not to travel. Arrange this via the refund button in your Liva account.

Q: What are the baggage allowances?

Ferry e-tickets include a free baggage allowance of 20–25 kg per person, depending on the operator. Excess baggage can be paid for in cash directly to the ferry operator. Always check your specific route's trip details for exact allowance limits.

Q: Can I change the date of my ticket?

Yes, you can change your ticket date. Notice of 24–72 hours (varies by operator) is required, with a 200 baht/person fee for a second change. For Bali Ferry, 7 days' notice and a USD $10 fee apply. Contact support via live chat to process changes—not by email.

Q: If I miss my ferry, can I take the next one?

No, you generally cannot take the next ferry if you miss your booked departure — tickets expire and are non-refundable and non-changeable. Arrive at least 30 minutes early to avoid missing it. If you do miss it, contact customer support immediately for the best available alternative options.

Satun to Langkawi Ferry

The ferry crossing between Satun and Langkawi links mainland southern Thailand with Malaysia's duty-free island of Langkawi. This route operates seasonally, running only during selected months of the year. Outside these months the crossing is suspended and the booking engine will not return sailings — if you are travelling off-season, plan an alternative connection, such as a ferry from Pak Bara or Koh Lipe, or shift your dates to fall within the published operating period.

Journey Overview

The crossing takes about 1 minutes, with 2 scheduled during the active season. Fares start from ฿1,900 per adult, though prices can vary by operator, class, and how far in advance you book. Exact departure times are shown on the live schedule above, so check this before finalising your travel plans, especially around public holidays when sailings can fill quickly.

Departure and Arrival Points

Ferries from Satun depart from Tammalang Pier, the province's main international ferry terminal, and arrive at Kuah Jetty on Langkawi, close to the island's town centre and duty-free shopping area. Travellers connecting from Hat Yai or other parts of southern Thailand typically arrange transport to Tammalang Pier before boarding; those departing from Langkawi should allow time to clear immigration at Kuah before their onward journey.

Operators and Onboard Comfort

Bundhaya Speed Boat is the main operator running this crossing, using a ferry and speed boat with onboard facilities on board. Availability and the number of operators running the route can change with demand and season, so always confirm the operator and boarding point shown at checkout before you travel. If your preferred sailing time is sold out, checking nearby departure slots on the same day is often the quickest way to secure a seat.

Booking Your Crossing

Because sailings on this route are limited to selected months of the year and demand rises quickly during peak travel periods, it's worth booking your Satun to Langkawi ferry ticket as early as possible once your dates are confirmed. If you're planning the return leg, you can also book the Langkawi to Satun ferry crossing directly, and travellers connecting onward from Satun may want to look at ferries from Pak Bara to Langkawi as an alternative departure point, or the Satun to Koh Lipe ferry route for island-hopping before continuing to Langkawi.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What's the boarding process on the day of my trip?

At the pier named on your ticket, look for the staff of the ferry operator listed on your ticket as well. Please present your e-ticket (QR code) from your phone or other device—they’ll provide you with a sticker and/or boarding pass and direct you to your boat. Most piers have staff available to help load your luggage. In Koh Samui, staff are usually stationed at booths near the boarding area; at other locations, they’re typically near the boats, wearing their company uniforms.

Do I need to print my ferry ticket or is mobile ok?

You don't need to print your ticket. On the day of travel, simply present your e-ticket (QR code) from your phone or other device to the ferry operator staff at the pier named on your ticket—they'll give you a sticker and/or boarding pass and direct you to your boat.

If you'd prefer a printed copy, you can register as a member on our site, which allows you to easily print out your e-tickets and VAT receipts.

What happens if my ferry is cancelled due to weather?

If your trip is cancelled due to bad weather, you can choose between receiving a refund or rescheduling your journey.

Please note that refunds for bad weather are only issued if the ferry operator cancels the trip. Also keep in mind that speedboats are more likely to be cancelled than ferries, as ferries can usually operate in the rain except in extremely bad weather — though journeys may take a little longer during storms or strong winds.

To arrange your refund or new travel date, please click the refund button in your personal Liva account.

What are the baggage allowances?

Your ferry e-ticket includes ferry transport, baggage fees, and handling. The free baggage allowance per person is 20–25 kg, depending on the operator. If your baggage exceeds this limit, you can pay the extra fee directly to the ferry operator in cash.

To check the baggage allowance for your specific trip, please refer to the trip details for your selected route.

Can I change the date of my ticket?

Yes, you can change your trip date as long as you provide notice at least 24, 48, or 72 hours before departure—the exact timeframe depends on the ferry operator you booked with. A small service fee of 200 baht per person applies for a second change.

Please note:

Changes must be for the same operator and boat type as your original booking.
The change applies to the entire booking; for example, if your booking is for 3 passengers, we cannot change the date or time for just one of them.

To proceed, please click the chat button to connect with one of our customer service agents, or use any of the official channels listed in the footer of our website.

Warning: Please do not send requests by replying directly to the booking confirmation email, as this is not an official support channel.

Bali Ferry :

Yes, you can. The change is required 7 days' notice prior to departure date. There is a small fee of USD $10 applied per time. Please click the chat button to speak with one of our customer service agents who will take you through the simple booking change process.

If I miss my ferry, can I take the next one?

Unfortunately, it is not possible. Tickets will expire for late arrivals and are strictly non-refundable and non-changeable.

To avoid missing your trip, please plan to arrive at the pier at least 30 minutes before departure to allow enough time for check-in and boarding.

If you do happen to miss your ferry and wish to travel as soon as possible, contact us right away, and we’ll advise you on the best available options.
