Penang
Ferry Service is the oldest ferry service in Malaysia. Located in the state of
Penang, this famous ferry service connects Sultan Abdul Halim ferry terminal in
Butterworth to Raja Tun Uda ferry terminal at Weld Quay in George Town in
Penang Island. The ferries are designed for vehicles to roll-on/roll-off. Some
board pedestrian passengers on the upper deck and small vehicles (cars) on the
lower deck, whereas some board vehicles on both decks.
The
benches for passengers on the upper decks have pivoting backs that can be
flipped back and forth so passengers can sit facing in the direction of travel
regardless of which way the ferry is going.
Ferries
from Penang International Airport depart in George Town, located some 16 km /
9.9 miles distance from the airport. A regular bus service operates between the
airport and city centre locations, as well as the bus terminal in Victoria
Street, which is near the main Ferry Weld Quay
