Ticket Tips

  • Buy tickets far in advance to avoid higher fares and unavailability
  • Remember to make meal requests in advance
  • Pay attention to the length of your layovers
  • Denpasar International Airport, Bali airport code = DPS
  • Consider travel insurance in case of unexpected changes.
  • Remember that Bali is 12 to15 hrs ahead of the U.S.. Search for a ticket with a departure date one day before your trip begins since you will be arriving the next day.. So, if you are meant to arrive in Bali on June 15th, search for flights departing on the 14th.
