• If your dates are flexible, set a Set a Price Alert and let Kiwi Code watch fares while you plan your trip.
• Consider nearby alternatives for flexibility, like flying from Lombok LOP or Surabaya SUB when Bali is peak, then self transferring back to the island if it saves time or money, always allow generous connection buffers.
