Songthaew Pick-Up Truck Transfer to Wang Sai Pier


The Wang Sai speedboat songthaew pick up truck service covers the short overland leg between your accommodation and Wang Sai Pier, where speedboat departures continue your journey by sea. A songthaew is a shared, open-sided pick-up truck used widely across Thailand for local transfers, and it is a common way to reach smaller piers that are not always served by larger coach transfers.


How the Pick-Up Truck Connection Works


On the day of travel, the songthaew collects passengers from a designated meeting point or hotel and drops them at Wang Sai Pier in time for the connecting speedboat departure. Because songthaews often run on a shared basis, pick-up times are generally set to match the scheduled boat, so it helps to be ready a little before the stated collection time.


What to Expect Onboard



  • Open-air or covered seating along the sides of the truck bed

  • Shared transfer with other passengers travelling on the same speedboat

  • Limited space for luggage, so keeping bags manageable is recommended


Why Choose the Wang Sai Speedboat Songthaew Pick Up Truck Option


This combined songthaew and speedboat option is a practical choice when Wang Sai Pier is the most convenient departure point for your destination. It removes the need to arrange your own transport to the pier and keeps the overland and sea segments of the trip linked together on a single booking.


Booking Conditions to Keep in Mind


Exact pick-up times, meeting points, luggage allowances, and pricing depend on the specific date and operator selected at checkout, so always check these details on the booking page before confirming. If your accommodation is outside the standard pick-up zone, additional arrangements may be needed, which will be indicated during booking.


Onward Travel from Nearby Islands


If your route continues beyond the speedboat leg, you may also want to check Koh Phangan ferry tickets for connecting sea travel options in the area.

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.
