Desaru Link Ferry Services, a subsidiary of Batam Fast Ferry,
has commenced passenger ferry services connecting
Singapore’s Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal with Desaru Coast Ferry
Terminal in Malaysia.
For the next few months, Batam Fast will operate
one round trip service per day from Thursday to Sunday, though
this will be extended to include Monday, 11 July as demand for the Hari
Raya Haji long weekend is strong.
Desaru Coast Ferry Terminal
The journey time is approximately 90
minutes.
“The launch of the ferry service is an exciting
and pivotal moment for Desaru Coast,” said Roslina Arbak, Managing
Director and Chief Executive Officer of Desaru Development
Holdings. “Through this scheduled, fast and
convenient cross-border connectivity between Singapore and Johor,
we look forward to welcoming more international travellers to
Johor and driving tourism for the state.”
To celebrate the launch, Batam Fast has a
promotion code available on its website with which customers can
purchase discounted tickets at SGD98.
Paul R. Gannaway, CEO of Batam Fast said,
“Starting off this new service as part of our service expansion
plan, we are encouraged with the interest level and promising take
up on our first weekend of service. We hope to see the momentum
develop in the months to come.”
