I've had my tickets now for about 3 weeks and finally getting around to going through the brochures and the rest of the junk that comes along with a package deal. I don't think I've ever had the tickets this early before and being a busy little person hadn't had time to check everything.
Tickets booked and paid for as a package deal through Travel @ Maddington, Michelle Symes, 9459 9933. We had done the phone and internet search for the best prices and Michelle came out on top. $1460.00 each for the 1 month stay in May, from Perth, travelling Garuda early morning flight and middle of the day flight home...3 nights Ida hotel, 3 nights Matahari bungalows, 3 nights Barong hotel, 4 nights Sinar Bali hotel, 8 nights Bali Garden Hotel and 7 nights at the Bali Shangri-La Hotel Candi Dasa (Timeshare). All include breakfast except the timeshare and no transfers.
Now the interesting thing I have found in amongst all the crappy stuff is that where it states Visa On Arrival to be paid at Denpasar airport it says Australian Dollars will be accepted as well as US Dollars.
Thank goodness this is finally getting through to the agents and maybe will end the constant questions about VOA.
Maybe we'll meet some fellow forumites over there this time.
