Poochie please continue to add your thoughts and experiences about places you have been to - you have every right to do that. But it’s not helpful to make up elaborate stories of places you’ve not been to.I agree, too much misinformation, waffle, troll etc, ... and I go OT too much, but will try to tame it.
First time I saw the street beggars in AKL city (they don't carry their possessions around), in about 2013, it popped my eyes, scary as you know what, scary it sure was, then I realised, they tend to only have their tins out, or people do give them money or talk to them, then I noticed that they tend to leave pedestrians alone.
Then, of late, ADL now has a lot of rough sleepers, or beggars, (who do have huge piles of their possessions}, also they tend to leave pedestrians alone.
Like I said, I have not stepped into Indonesian soil, they might be nice people, but just reading on websites, that I don't write on, is scary enough.
Anyway, to each their own sense of security, or what's right/appropriate.
I will keep my thoughts to myself about Bali DPS or KUL from now on.
I'll be flying through on 22 Feb, will post back.
01Feb for me. I'll try to do the same
6th Feb for me
I'll look as well to confirm the data point ;-)
Did you spot the international transfers area and did it look serviceable (open and no huge lines etc)? With the current DSC promo I'm looking at a couple of DPS runs but really don't want to turn it into a holiday - time is short so want an immediate turnaround.
We will be flying into Bali in 4 weeks - planned holiday. Is there a noticeable drop in passenger numbers and additional Corona virus checks (temperature monitors?) Any other observations?Argh, I'm sorry, I completely forgot to look when I arrived last night...

That sounds quite wonderful. We were originally booked as a couple but in the current DSC I did end up separating from my husband of 40 years and have a new PNR. He kept the same one as he doesn’t need to to requal WP so if it works, well, bingo!Yes, my jaw dropped when I saw how empty the immigration hall was. Last time I came in on QF45, which arrives at about the same time as QF43, immigration queues spanned the entire immigration hall. This time we were about 20th in line, through in no more than 5 minutes.
You'll be handed a yellow 'health check card' questionnaire with your customs declaration by cabin crew. One of the field's will ask for 'address' but doesn't specify home or destination - they want your intended address in Bali. Saw multiple people get sent away to correct the form.
Didn't see any temperature monitors.
Unrelated to your question but I've just posted some pics from QF43 over in the Meals thread, if anyone is interested.

Unless you’re Dr Who, I’m assuming you meant 2215hrs and not 2015hrs departure?I'm flying into DPS at 21:05 and leaving at 20:15, giving myself a measly 1h 10m connecting time...not sure if it's too tight or what will happen if I were to miss it.
