Negeri Pulau Pinang bus from Penang
Posted: Wed January 2, 2008 02:11 PM UTC
Dear All,

after a few days in Penang, I live by bus to melacca on the 03th of february.
I was looking for bus schedule but did not find too much informations.
I am interested in Transnasional and Plusliner/Nice bus as I was told, these are the best ones. (especially Nice buses)
It is important as it will be a long trip.
I would like to travel during the day. Can someone advise me the bus schedule for these companies?
Thank you
Judit

HI Judit,

You can go to Transnasional website to see the Bus Journey, Fares and Schedules:
http://www.nadi.com.my/transportation_routes_express.asp

Transnasional Schedule for Penang to Malacca (Melaka):
http://www.nadi.com.my/transportation_routes_express2.asp

There's only one day bus leaving at 9:30am, from Penang's Sungei Nibong Bus Terminal.I know you have heard a lot about those nice and luxury coaches... BUT be warned, the bus from Penang to Malacca is not one of those luxury buses... it's just an economy bus... no luxury, but it's airconditioned, comfortable seats...well,not too bad.

As for Plusliner/ Nice... I think there is a problem with the website, I cannot access the page... but you can try accessing it:
www.plusliner.com

I hope the information is useful.

Regards,
Jo

Thank you the comments for both of you, they are really helpful. It's bad that no luxury bus for this routing as it will be a wrong tip, but if it is comfortabel, we will survive :)

There is another bus company (Consortium). Its a very reliable bus company. The ticket booth at Komtar (bus station).
