Flew with Merpati bali- lombok one week ago, booked at travel agent in Ubud paid 800,000rph return.
Seems that Merpati have more flights on the boarf than actually fly as our flight and the one 20 mins after ours were cancelled and also the flight after the one we took was cancelled.
The plane was full when they left and I think they just wait till it's full before they leave.
Also got a phone call on the day we were to fly out and they wanted us at the airport to take an earlier flight so had a scary ride from Kuta Lombok to arrive at the airport with 5 mins to spare!
On the brightside the planes were better than what we flew in with Virgin Blue and the flight is very short you are no sooner up then you coming down.
