The low-cost airline Jetstar has just confirmed that it will launch a new direct flight service between Australia and Bali.

Australian tourists are the most frequent international arrivals in Bali, and the new service will give tourists more options than ever when it comes to planning their vacations. 

Jetstar is one of the leading low-cost airlines connecting Australian tourists with Bali. The new direct flight service will start in August 2025, at the peak of the high season.

The new services will connect tourists from the Gold Coast with Bali, with the first service taking off on 1st August. The route will operate three times weekly and will, in turn, provide more than 58,000 affordable seats for holidaymakers every year. 

The CEO of Jetstar Group, Stephanie Tully, told the media, “We are thrilled to provide our customers with a low-cost connection between the Gold Coast and Bali, making it more affordable and convenient for travelers to reach the Indonesian holiday island.”

It is not only Jetstar who are improving their connections between Australia and Bali. Earlier this week Indonesia AirAsia, confirmed the launch of a new Adelaide and Denpasar route that will commence in June 2025. The service will operate four times weekly and the low cost airline has put tickets on sale already. 

In a media statement, Veranita Yosephine, the Chief Executive of Indonesia AirAsia, shared, “We are thrilled to touch down in Adelaide and South Australia soon for the very first time.  Australia is one of our most important growth markets with the recent addition of Cairns and Darwin to our network as well as Perth.”

The Adelaide—Denpasar flight will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays starting from 25 June 2025. The flight will depart from Adelaide at 7.50 am and land at 10.40am local time in Denpasar, on flight number QZ 421.

The homeward bound will depart from I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport at 11.30 pm local time, landing in Adelaide at 7.10 am local time using flight number QZ 420. The flight route will operate every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, starting 26th June 2025. 

Tourists planning to visit Bali in the upcoming high season are advised to book their flights as soon as possible.

Demand for travel to Bali is only increasing. While airlines are working with Bali Airport to put more flight services on the schedule, it is guaranteed that many of the most popular flight services will be sold out throughout the high season.

To avoid disappointment and rising last-minute ticket fares, tourists would be wise to shop around for deals and book seats as soon as the best rates appear in their searches; refresh the search, and the deals could disappear!
