Penang Airport (PEN) Public & Private Bus Transfers

There are a couple of Penang Airport bus options available.

Rapid Penang operates a bus from Penang Airport service. Their buses may be found one level down and tickets may be purchased for the Rapid Pengang bus desk. Their buses have a red roof and a white and blue body so are easy to recognise. There are two routes:

• Bus 102: "Balik Palau"
• Bus 401: "Weld Quay" or George Town 

Inquire at the bus desk when purchasing your ticket which route to take to your destination. Routes with an E added on (e.g. 401E) indicate express routes, but they still make quite a few stops. Buses depart about every 30 minutes between 05:30 and 23:35. There is free WiFi aboard most buses.

• Tip: Returning to the airport, IHateTaxis has heard reports of travellers waiting more than an hour for the 401 bus to Penang Airport. Leave plenty of time! (thanks @RunawayJuno!    )

The Penang Yellow Bus Company also operates an hourly bus service (route 83) between the PEN Penang International Airport and Pengkalan Weld (Weld Quay) between 06:00 and 22:00 daily.
