KTM Shuttle Tebrau (~RM5) if you book online — both customs cleared in 20 min weekday morning. CW2 bus from Queen Street reliable 24h (~S$3–5). Grab/car weekends often 90+ min Causeway queue. Enter JB before 9am Saturday, return before 4pm sweet spot. Friday 5pm return is nightmare 2+ hours. KTM beats car every time for day trippers.

7am weekday CIQ also smooth. Avoid Fri 5pm return like plague. KTM beats Causeway car every time.

Causeway queue was 90 min — KTM next time for sure.
