The allowances vary enormously from destination to destination and airline to airline. Our concierge team is constantly monitoring the changes that occur regularly. A safe rule of thumb is 20 kg, or 44 lbs and one bag. Often on the larger domestic carriers, which Dive Damai uses whenever possible, an extra ten kilos or 22 lbs of allowance can be obtained for dive equipment. However, we cannot avoid taking some small domestic planes to reach the remoter destinations and baggage allowance can sometimes be only 10kg or 22lbs per passenger.
Our concierge team will be with you every step of your journey through Indonesia assisting you with embarkation and transfers. Fortunately, we have experience in negotiating over baggage payments which can be as much as US$5 per kilo. Please kindly note that most airline companies will not accept credit card to pay any excess in weight.
We urge you to take advantage of our free dive equipment on the vessels to reduce your baggage weight. Full details of what equipment is available can be obtained from our concierge team. All equipment is top of the line and maintained to the highest standards. It’s free so please make the most of it and save yourself some money.
