My reccomendation would be to fly from Singapore direct to Phuket (see below for why), if your then travelling on to Phi Phi you can either arrange a ferry/speedboat on to the islands or my suggestion would be Destination Air's flight service onto Phi Phi direct from Phuket International Airport.
My main reason for suggesting flying from Singapore to Phuket would be the continued violence that I don't think is widely publicized much outside of the country, the area your bus would travel through doesn't see one day go by without report of an bombing, arson attack or shootings. That whole area is still under martial law, one of the last remaining areas following the return to democracy recently. The national train service that runs from Bangkok to Penang in Malaysia has been suspended due to a recent bombing attack against it, the trains last I read were not traveling past Hat Yai, the train drivers are refusing to go further unless they are given special security.
So my advice, stay well out of that area, even the british embassy in Bangkok is recommending british nationals (which I am one) to not travel through there unless absolutely necessary.
Hi Jedi
if you can withstand the 21-hr bus ride, you may book a ticket from the bus station at Queen Street. This takes you to Phuket, from where you transfer to Phi Phi Island by boat.
Otherwise, you may take budget flights with Air Asia, Tiger Airways and Jetstar.
bus and train is not good way now... if you follow the news in Thailand, you would know what I try to say..... fly to Thailand with low cost airline is still best way now.... http://www.discovery-thailand.com ... G'luck
I agree with eTour Singapore.
There is, head to Golden Mile Shopping Centre and check with the bus agencies there.
