Our first and last day of Bali, a place where we definitely go through is the Bali Ngurah Rai International Airport.
Frankly, I was pretty amazed during the day we arrived at the night time. The high ceiling volumn, the vibrant carpet colour and the lighting ambiance really surprised me!
The airport is huge and clean. There were extra arrival immigration counters being opened when our aircraft arrived. The waiting time for our check in baggage was short and the terminal signs were very clear.
For our returning flight, we arrived the airport more than 4 hours before flight after checked-out from Novotel, we thought we might have a long wait at the check in area, but there was early check in service available for AirAsia. The check in counter staff was friendly and cheerful.
The airside is very spacious, with many duty free shops and restaurants. The airport lounges are available one floor above the departure level.
They still have that strange passage through the Dufry shop going out and in the transit area, but so do a lot of other airports.
There is a reasonable amount of shopping and dining that is to be had and gate seating is ample. And, we had all the time we have while waiting for the boarding time.
Despite the large number of tourists arriving and departing, the airport is pretty well maintained and queues in immigration, both inbound and outbound were reasonably fast moving.
The only thing that need to be improved is that some parts of the airport are hot, I could see many people fanning themselves.
But overall I liked this airport.
