First Time at Bali and Yogyakarta Airport? Here's the Guide

Flying into Bali or Yogyakarta airport for the first time can feel confusing, especially when it comes to getting out of the terminal and reaching your accommodation. This guide walks you through the practical steps, from the plane to having your vehicle ready at the curb.

Ngurah Rai Airport in Bali: What to Know From the Start

Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) sits in southern Bali and handles both domestic and international flights. The arrivals area is usually busy at peak times, so allow extra time for immigration and collecting your bags.

A few things to confirm before you travel:

• Carry your passport, and have your driving licence and International Driving Permit (IDP) ready if you plan to self-drive.
• Save the rental WhatsApp number and your accommodation address in writing or as a screenshot.
• Exchange some money or prepare Rupiah for payment on arrival.

Visa rules, arrival fees and entry requirements can change. Check the official immigration or Indonesian embassy information before you leave.

How to Get From the Airport to Your Accommodation

There are a few common ways to leave the airport:

If you want to be mobile right away, a rental vehicle delivered to the airport can be a practical choice. To see the options available, check scooter rental in Bali and car rental in Bali.

Yogyakarta Airport (YIA): Different Location, Different Plan

Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA) is located well outside central Jogja, so trips into the city and to destinations such as Borobudur or Prambanan usually take longer than from the old airport. Factor this into your schedule.

For trips from YIA, you can choose a car with a local driver, which is very helpful if you are not yet familiar with the roads and traffic. See car with driver at Yogyakarta airport for more details, or the route from YIA airport to Borobudur.

1. Make sure your passport and supporting documents are easy to reach.
2. Note the name and contact number of your rental company or driver.
3. Check the vehicle at handover: its condition, fuel level and equipment.
4. For a scooter, make sure you hold a valid motorcycle licence.
5. For night arrivals, consider your arrival time and the availability of transport.
