    By Plane -- Ngurah Rai International Airport (tel. 361/751011) is 13km (8 miles) southwest of Denpasar. For airport information and connection to airline reservations counters, call tel. 361/751011, ext. 1454. When you leave Bali, there will be an airport departure tax of Rp100,000 (US$5.50/£6.10).

    Most visitors from the U.S. and Canada fly here via connection in Taipei on China Airlines or EVA Air, Bangkok on Thai Airways, Jakarta on Garuda Indonesia, Singapore on Singapore Airlines, Tokyo on Japan Airlines, or Seoul on Korean Air. Check with travel agents for deals and package rates, some with affordable overnight connections via Bangkok. Bali is served from Europe by Cathay Pacific via Hong Kong; tickets can be purchased from British Airways, Singapore Airlines, or Air France. Flights from Australia and New Zealand can be booked through Qantas and Australian Airlines.

    Few travelers stop in the city, but connect directly with their resort area of choice. To get to your destination from the airport, it is a good idea to prearrange pickup through your hotel (the rate is comparable to the official rates at the airport); otherwise, you can buy a ticket at the official taxi counter just outside Customs and arrange a fixed-rate ride to your hotel. Avoid the temptation to go with unofficial cabs; you might get caught in a taxi scam that will leave you frustrated, overcharged, or in the wrong place.
