In Reply to: Garuda direct from Adelaide? And Virgin posted by BaliDeb on Tuesday, 29. December 2009 at 07:29 Bali Time:
As Matt said do the hop I booked my kids direct with Virgin last year at $850. This year I booked Adelaide Perth on special $178 return they get in at 16-30 and the plane leaves for Bali about 2015, and Perth Bali on special $175 return all with Virgin. This made it $355 return SAdelaide to Bali in Feb and June. They have specials from Perth on a regular basis as do Jetstar and Air Asia.
The only problem with Virgin to Adelaide is on the return as the flight leaves Bali 15.30 and get into Perth 15mins after the 1800 flight to Adelaide so you have to stay the night or go via Sydney - no problem if you want to have a look around Perth for the day as several flights go during the day.
