No Rationale for Travel Restrictions – WHO, ICAO AirAsia wishes to advise guests that the health authorities have started screening passengers from countries affected by the Influenza A (H1N1). We appreciate your cooperation and patience as you might be experiencing delays due to the screening and/or disinfecting procedure.
AirAsia would like to assure guests that we are committed to all regulations and advice from the authorities in countries where we operate to ensure your safety.
To address any concern that you may have, we would like to share the statement below which was issued by the World Health Organisation (WHO): “Limiting travel and imposing travel restrictions would have very little effect on stopping the virus from spreading, but would be highly disruptive to the global community. … Scientific research based on mathematical modelling indicates that restricting travel will be of limited or no benefit in stopping the spread of disease. Historical records of previous influenza pandemics, as well as experience with SARS, have validated this point.” – WHO (Read the full statement here)
In addition, you may also refer to another statement by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) here.
We will keep you updated with the latest information from time to time, so please do visit this page again to check it out.
到邦咯島後, 妳就會看到很多司機堵住出口,然後一直說服你說你要去的地方很遠,讓他載你一程,我不太記得多少錢了,大概是 RM10,只要一上車就是單一價 RM10,不管你去哪裡,就是上下車算一程 RM10。這裡的計程車很特別,都是小貨車,而且都是粉紅色的。你一到,他就先問你住哪裡,如果沒有住的地方,他可以幫忙介紹(應該是有跟旅館講好可抽佣金的)。於是我們就說 Nipah Bay Villa,他當然知道那是甚麼地方,立刻就叫人來載了。另外一點值得提的是,如果你有機車 motor 駕照,你可以租機車,渡輪站那裡有RM20一天的,算起來是比島上面其他租車的便宜,通常是以 RM20用4小時計算,一天 RM30是最便宜。千萬千萬要帶機車帽和駕照,因為你知道 Kopi 不便宜喔!
我們住的地方是 Nipah Bay Villa,是一個馬來人和外國人比較多的地方,比較有南洋風味,如果你也有這樣的偏好,住這裡是最好不過的。我們住最便宜的,但是品質絕對是可接受的。房間和浴室不大,因為是想來親近大自然,不會整天待在房間,所以不計較這個。 Nipah Bay Villa 是 20 年的老旅館,你可以在櫃台的相簿發現很久以前的照片,可能我個人比較懷舊,所以看到這些照片就會有特別迷戀這裡的感覺。我們去的時候它剛剛蓋好新大樓,所以就跟他要求住新大樓的房間。內有冷氣、風扇、電視、雙人床、浴室。如果你要住好一點,他們也有更好的房間提供。
我喜歡住 Nipah Bay Villa 的原因是氣氛很好,很多住附近旅館的外國人晚上都會來這裡吃晚餐。我們也在這裡使用了我們的燭光晚餐,氣氛非常好,食物是有點小貴,但是很好吃!說它貴其實也不然,我們各點了 Chicken Chop & Grill Fish n Chips,價格就差不多每道 RM20,美味的程度絕對可媲美 The Manhattan Fish Market!還有甜點喔!一點不誇張。當然,我們吃到真的很飽,我們接下來的活動就是去海邊,月光下漫步。 真得有度假的感覺,開心 ;)
Nipah Bay Villa 在海邊,大概走 50 步就到沙灘了,60 步就能動到水!我們一大早醒來就去海邊了,一大早就看海心情非常的好。我們試著走遠一點,因為聽旅館的其中一位澳洲旅客 John 說,前面一點沙灘更漂亮。果然,不到一百步,腳下的沙越來越細,越來越白!好地方!沙灘上還有很多很多被浪打上來的貝殼珊瑚,很漂亮。(後來我們才知道原來我們去的那個沙灘叫白沙灘,是島上有名的沙灘,因為開發還未完全,也沒有受到污染,難得有這麼漂亮的沙灘。)
