Hello Boarders!

What's the current bargain price from Denpasar to Menado? Any direct flights yet? Thanks so much

No direct flights as yet all still stop in Makassar (UPJ)

I finally got the Lion Air website to work, it does appear they have direct flights from DPS to MDC, however the round trip price was over $200 US. (2,188,000 RP)

Can't comment whether the non-stop is available, but that price is not really out of line. The flight is just short of 2000 miles round trip. Last year, we paid close to US $500 for a domestic Indonesian flight of about 2500 miles round trip. And it was booked by an Indonesian booking company working to get "the deal". I would personally be happy to get a $200 ticket, based on our costs last year.

Nope so sorry no direct flights......all stop in Makassar from Denapasar... price is about right but you can get promo fares for around Rp 1.800.000,00 - (this is an Gauruda promo fare where their normal economy is Rp 2.765.000,00)

Paid about USD 150 last Xmas for MDC to DPS with a change of planes and 2 hour wait in Makassar. Think it was on LionAir. Got the ticket only 3 or 4 days prior to the flight -- via the diveshop. Alternatively, if you have time and like cheap, see whether you can get an AirAsia flight to KL from MDC, and then from KL to DPS. Shouldn't be more than USD 150 for the two flights if booked well ahead. You probably need 2 Indonesian entry visa's though this way, but you can get them at both airports.
