After a Bali discussion with a friend on Australia Day we decided to look into the deal that Skywesy is currently offering and we are subsequently going on 3rd March!! Yaayyy!
It's only for a week, which is a shame, but the best we can manage for now. I work week on week off and can't get any extra time off at the moment so it's perfect.
The current deal ends at the end of March (24th). The flight leaves at 0740 on Saturday and goes via Broome and Port Hedland, there is a 30min stop in Broome and 1 hour in Port Hedland. You arrive in Denpasar at 1340, which still gives enough of the day to settle in to that Bali feel before the first sleep. At least the extra travelling time will be broken up a bit by landing and taking off a couple of extra times, and I like the idea of flying low over the North West for a bit of a looky see.
The accommodation is at the Matahari Bungalows which are budget but still pretty good. My son stayed there a couple of years ago and loved it. We have decided to opt for a room each as it's only $49 extra for the single supplement. The cost all up inc taxes is $761.
The flight back arrives at midnight on the Saturday night, but as it is by then a domestic flight you just pick up your bags and leave.
I'm so excited!! It was much too long to wait until my 16 days in September!!
The bus trip to Cracker's on the 6th is most certainly on the agenda. I'm really looking forward to meeting those of you that will be going.
Peta :o)
