The demand for ferry trips from Labuan to Menumbok and vice-versa has soared despite the additional trips offered by ferry operators.
Two ferry operators - Labuan Mainland Link Sdn Bhd and Juta Bonus Sdn Bhd - have sold thousands of tickets for passengers and vehicles ahead of the combined Aidilfitri public holidays and the mid-term school break starting from April 19. LML Managing Director Major Datuk David Ling said ferries remained an important transportation means for travellers from Labuan and Sabah either for work, business dealings, studies or vacation.
Meanwhile, Robert Ling Song Shieng, the manager of Labuan Point Enterprise, the ticketing management company for Putrajaya 1, Goodwill Star, Kimanis 2 and Joy Star, said tickets for the Labuan-Menumbok-Labuan route between April 18 and 22 were sold out last month. He said during the period, there would be six to nine ferry trips daily from 7.30am to 8pm. “Only two morning trips are still available for the journey from Menumbok to Labuan on April 24 and 30.
