Bali is now Australia's fourth most popular holiday destination, behind New Zealand, Thailand and the USA. Its share of the total Australian holiday market has grown by 44.5 per cent over the most recent half year, he says.
Garuda says the 85,860 Australians visiting Bali during the first half of this year was around 30,000 more than for the same time last year. Western Australia remains Bali's biggest Australian market, followed by NSW and Victoria.
Meanwhile, collapsed Bali airline Air Paradise is often reported to be looking at a comeback, depending on finance, while Singapore-based low-budget carrier Tiger Airways has also hinted at possible flights between Bali and Australia.
The Little Bali Hotel and Resort Company co-founder Brett Morgan says although Australian numbers have improved they are still a long way from where they should be.
