I haven't booked the dives, yet. Do you think I could go and book there? I think I'll do day trips, or a short liveaboard, the Backpackers version. Is there a lot of dive centers, or only a few ones? What about accommodation? Did you see a lot of budget accommodation, like in Bali, or it's all high end?Thank you for the feedbaack!
I'm glad I'll could help. We booked all our Indonesian flights through that site without any problems. I my opionion Lion Air may be the better option on the route Denpasar - Labuan Bajo. And yeah, it's a risk worth taking since the diving in Komodo is truly amazing. Have you booked any dive center yet?
Mattias,
thank you so, so, so very much for all the info!!! You've just saved me a lot of headache!
I'll explain: I'm going to Komodo in August as part of a trip to Fiji. I have all of my tickets, but the one from Bali to Labuan Bajo, I just couldn't book. I've tried all options of the lion air site and nothing, they didn't accept my payment (because it isn't an Indonesian CC, I was told). I've tried through other Indonesian sites (travel agents) and had the same problem.
With the link you've provided, now I have my tickets!!!! I'm so happy. I was afraid I'd get there and end up not doing it for lack of place on planes!
I realize there are cancelled/delayed flights and all, but that's a risk worth taking.
Thank you so much for that link and for sharing your fantastic video!
