As my usual habit..... I like to kpo and tcss alot even with strangers. I was taking a rest at the ferry agent office in Harbourfront and managed to tcss with the staff there.
During the tcss.... I learnt that they sell discounted tickets to tour groups.... S$63 each for below 5pax and S$56 each for more than 5pax..... managed to psycho them to sell me 10 sets of 2-way tickets at the discounted price.... 😀
Good disclosure of way to get cheap tickets! And proof that $70 is gouging the passengers. Now curious which ferry operator u're referring to.

The Wavemaster tickets i referred to did not have an expiry date IIRC. They sold tickets at a big discount then knowing they would become defunct shortly after (change name or taken over with move from Batam Center to Harbour Bay?), with tickets becoming invalid even without an expiry date. Think your bargain is a different situation.
