A departure transfer collects you at your hotel or villa and drops you at the right terminal at DPS — the same fixed USD prices as arrival, from $95, with 5% off when you book both legs together. Tell us your flight time and we plan the pickup around Bali traffic, not around hope.
Getting to Bali airport is a traffic problem disguised as a taxi ride. The distances are short; the drive times are not, and they swing hard by day, hour and season. This page walks through the departure leg step by step, with the honest drive times we actually plan pickups around.
Start from the drive time for your area, then add your airline’s advised check-in window and a margin for the unplanned. These are the typical ranges we schedule with:
| From | Distance to DPS | Typical drive | Standard car |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kuta | 4 km | 15–30 min | $95 |
| Jimbaran | 8 km | 25–45 min | $100 |
| Seminyak | 10 km | 30–55 min | $105 |
| Nusa Dua | 13 km | 30–55 min | $110 |
| Sanur | 16 km | 35–60 min | $110 |
| Canggu | 16 km | 40–75 min | $115 |
| Uluwatu | 23 km | 45–75 min | $130 |
| Ubud | 37 km | 60–105 min | $150 |
The upper end of each range is real: Friday and Sunday afternoons on the Canggu–Seminyak corridor, rain, and ceremony processions all happen. When you send your flight time, we propose a pickup that treats the upper number as the plan, not the disaster case. The full price list covers departures from anywhere else on the island.
If we brought you in, the fastest move is one message in the same WhatsApp thread: “same car back, flight XX123 on Thursday”. Booking arrival and departure together takes 5% off the total; adding the return later still works, at the standard fixed price. New guest? Book online and the desk confirms in minutes.
The evening before, we reconfirm the plan against your flight and the traffic outlook. If your airline reschedules, the pickup moves with it — that is what the flight number in the thread is for. Villa in a lane the maps get wrong? Drop the pin and gate photo once; the chauffeur navigates by it.
On the day itself, your chauffeur arrives at the lobby or villa gate at the agreed time, loads the luggage, and confirms the terminal from your flight number. The car is air-conditioned, the water is cold, and the route is the chauffeur’s problem — you get the window seat view of Bali going past one last time.
International and domestic terminals share the same complex but different doors; we read yours from the flight number so you are not dragging bags between them. Drop-off is curbside at departures. An extra stop on the way — returning a rental surfboard, one last oleh-oleh run — is +$10, arranged in the thread beforehand.
The same few errors cause most airport sprints. Booking the pickup by distance instead of day and hour — 16 km from Canggu means little when the corridor is at a crawl on a Sunday afternoon. Forgetting that check-in counters close well before departure, so the target is the counter, not the terminal door. Letting a villa checkout, a last massage and a pickup collide in the same half hour. And assuming the driver can make up time on the road — in south Bali traffic nobody can, which is why the buffer goes into the plan, not into wishful driving. Send the flight time; we do this arithmetic all day.
Six passengers fit one Staria or V-Class; larger parties run as a convoy with a single fixed USD total and one pickup plan, so the whole group reaches check-in together. The group transfer page covers the options — for weddings and retreats, tell us the headcount and luggage and the desk will propose the cleanest split.
For $55 per guest, VIP fast-track departure adds a curbside meet, an escorted check-in, and priority immigration and security — most valuable in the evening bank when economy queues stretch. Pair it with any vehicle tier; details sit with the fast-track combo.
Departure fares are identical to arrivals — fixed USD per vehicle, tolls and parking included, from $95 (Kuta) to $150 (Ubud) in the standard Innova, with the Staria, Alphard, Denza D9, V-Class and S-Class above it. Pay cash, card (+3%), or transfer. Pre-dawn pickups between 22:00 and 05:00 add a flat $5. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours out, and the desk of Bali Airport Transfer, operated by Bali Premium Trip since 2015, answers around the clock. Round trips are simplest to arrange on the return transfer booking page.
The drive from Canggu to DPS is 16 km but typically 40–75 min, and worse on Friday and Sunday afternoons. Add your airline’s advised check-in window on top, and let us set the pickup time with buffer — that is part of the service.
Yes — the same fixed USD price applies in either direction, and booking arrival and departure together takes 5% off the total. Payment works the same way too: cash, card with a 3% fee, or bank transfer.
Yes. The desk and drivers run 24/7, and pre-dawn pickups for the morning departure bank are routine. Pickups between 22:00 and 05:00 carry a flat +$5 night surcharge, stated when you book — nothing is added at the car.
Departure fares are fixed in USD by vehicle and route — from $95 (about Rp 1,548,500) for a standard Innova to Kuta, up to $150 to Ubud, with tolls and parking included. Booking arrival and departure together takes 5% off the total.
Send the flight number and we track it. If the airline reschedules, your pickup time moves with it at no extra cost — that is the point of booking against the tracked flight rather than a fixed clock time.
