Direct international flights to Bali
Direct international flights to Bali have resumed for the first time in two years as Indonesia opens the resort island to foreign travelers from all countries, but mandatory quarantine stays in place for all travelers
Officials had stated in October that Bali would welcome foreign comings from 19 countries that meet World Health Organization criteria, such as having their COVID-19 cases under control. But there were no direct international flights to Bali until Thursday when Garuda Indonesia worked its first such flight in two years from Tokyo.

- Singapore Airlines will introduce a regular non-stop route to and from Denpasar in Bali beginning Feb. 16, told Taufan Yudhistira, the public relations manager at Bali’s international airport.
Completely vaccinated travelers must quarantine for five days in a hotel or on a liveaboard boat certified by the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, and travelers who have received one dose of COVID-19 vaccine must quarantine for seven days.
Indonesia reported 27,197 new coronavirus infections and 38 deaths on Thursday in the latest 24-hour period. The country has seen more than 4.4 million whole cases since the pandemic started.
The country’s most delinquent surge in cases, driven by the positively transmissible omicron variant, has especially been concentrated in Jakarta, but in current days infections have “increased significantly” in Java and Bali, told Coordinating Maritime Affairs and Investment Minister Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, the government minister who leads the COVID-19 answer in Java and Bali.
The quarantine for foreign comings is intended to prevent the further spread of the virus, told Pandjaitan.
Island was closed to international flights after
Before the pandemic, Bali’s airport accommodated more than 200 international flights with at least one million passengers per day in 2019. The island was closed to international flights after COVID-19 hit the world’s fourth most populous country in 2020.
Tourism is the significant source of revenue in Bali, which is home to more than 4 million people who are mostly Hindu in the mainly Muslim archipelago nation. Bali’s tourist areas were deserted two decades ago after visitors were scared off by deadly terror attacks that targeted foreigners, but the island has worked to overcome that image.
The reopening of Bali to travelers from all countries will help boost the island’s economy, which has been badly impacted by the pandemic, Pandjaitan expressed.
The reopening will also serve as a “trial,” expressed Tourism and Economy Minister Sandiaga Uno, as the government prepares to host G-20 events in Bali later this year.
