the bus i refer to, is the regular bus with a bustop terminal at the airport.
upon exiting the arrivals bldg, turn right into a downward sloping walkway. at the end is the bus stop. choose the appropriate bus number, po. i forget the number, but it's in google, yata. "bus from airport to downtown."
fare payment is via octopus card or exact cash. no sukli. there is a card dispensing window nearby, with non-english speaking dispenser. if i remember right, no foreign currency accepted. exchange (some of) your furrin money at the in-airport money exchange. hindi naman nagkakalayo from the competition.
btw, the octopus card is good for 2 years. if you intend to return soon, you can opt to hold on to the card and not surrender it for monetary value, upon leaving.
sanay si bus sa maletas. the bus has stacking provision for multiple maletas for airport folks. don't expect a helping hand. "lift your own." good luck.
but you have to know where you're supposed to get off. the bus has small monitors to help you determine where you are. and you're lucky if the bus driver is communicable in english. it's scary the first time.
there's a free shuttle for the regal hotels. instead of turning right upon exiting the bldg, one turns left and walks a much longer way, into the regal airport hotel at the far end. the free shuttle passes by there for passengers, at regular intervals, for regal hotel guests only. heh heh.
i do not know if the other hotels offer similar service.
the limo, train or the taxi are other possibilities, but they're more expensive than the bus. kahit tatlo kayo sa taxi, the bus is still cheaper.
