"Third world airport and services"
Troy Finney (Australia)
Not Verified | Third world airport and services. All the money that is made from tourism and you need to endure the most ineffective immigration staff anywhere on earth. Luggage that took so long I thought it had come on another later flight. Chaos when you get through customs with random people and prices for taxis hassling. Not good enough. D- score or 1 out of 10. All it would take would be someone caring and valuing tourism.

"massive queues which move very slowly"
Ronald Stanley (Australia)
Not Verified | Immigration on arrival has got to be one of the very worst in the world, massive queues which move very slowly in a generally disorganized manner. If you're connecting to domestic flights allow a minimum 3 hour connection (minimum, minimum, minimum) - relatively high level of disorganization across the board in all facets of the operation - check-in slow, make sure you go early.

"Airport signs and guides also good"
H Silva (Sri Lanka)
✅ Trip Verified | Staff and Officers are helpful. Airport signs and guides also good. Only one minus - I have traveled for my holidays and we didn't face any issues on our arrival. While departing from Bali they didn't allow us to carry our selfie sticks with us. (We don't have any baggage so they charged IDR 250,000 for stick and IDR 80,000 for wrapping in the plastic).

"Poor systems and poor tourist care"
H Jackson (Australia)
✅ Trip Verified | We have been stuck in line between baggage check and immigration check for well over 1 hour with little sign of the line moving. Nobody from the airport has had the customer care enough to inform us what is happening. The line is not moving and the airport seems to have stopped. We have missed the boarding closing time. Total chaos here and with nobody updating us as to why this is happening. Poor systems and poor tourist care!

"Nonsensical security checks"
S Miles (Australia)
Not Verified | I find the Balinese people lovely but I’m not sure what happens when they arrive at their job at the airport but power crazy comes to mind. This airport only magnifies just how difficult traveling can be in a third world country. Nonsensical security checks. Like checking suitcases through a scanner before airport check in. The laughable thing is we had bags on top of bags so no way they could have been checked thoroughly, the guy who was supposed to be checking them wasn’t even looking at the screen. Same at passport control, two immigration girls having a chat whilst hundreds of people waiting. She didn’t check our photos. Then there’s the 4th bag check before you get on the plane .... no water allowed (purchased airside and unopened ) to be taken on the aircraft.

"Arrogant and aggressive for no reason"
John Healy (Australia)
Not Verified | Terrible! Queue for an hour then met the rudest immigration staff ever! (And I travel worldwide for work). Bali is nice with nice people but the immigration staff have put me off ever going again! Arrogant and aggressive for no reason. I'll find another destination for my next trip

"arrivals procedure can be confusing"
Ray Mcgregor (Australia)
Not Verified | As a first time visitor the arrivals procedure can be confusing. On joining one of the long queues for the immigration check, a fellow Australian couple indicated there was a separate section for over 60's and families with children under 5. Processed far more quickly, only trouble was the long wait for the luggage to arrive.

"Very poor immigration procedure"
S Heale (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | Very poor immigration procedure, queues miles long & waiting for over an hour and seems to be load of desks closed which is leading to a back log of people. Airport itself is nice & clean.

"It was clean, safe"
C Richardson (United Kingdom)
❎ Not Verified | The people complaining need to get a grip. It's an airport, not a day spa! You check in, go through security (a couple of times) and board your flight. It was clean, safe and no one was trying to scam you. What more do you want? I would recommend bringing food in with you and buying what you want before arriving at the airport.

"I got yelled at"
S Dong (New Zealand)
✅ Trip Verified | Rudest immigration ever, I got yelled at for giving the officer the wrong passport. Changed the passport immediately, before I had a chance to apologise the ‘officer’ threw my passport at me and told me to go away. He refused to do the stamp for me and kept shouting at me. Tried to make a complaint to the manager but he did nothing but to smile at me and tell me to go away. Will not recommend to come to this airport.
