UPDATE ON FLIGHTS BETWEEN AUSTRALIA AND DENPASAR (BALI)
The latest advice from our team of meteorologists and the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre is that conditions in the vicinity of Denpasar Airport remain favourable for flying despite further eruptions at Mt Raung last night.
Additional flights have been scheduled today to ensure we can have guests on their way as soon as possible. A full list of flights is included below.
Given the ongoing volcanic eruption at Mt Raung, Virgin Australia has offered to waive all fare differences for guests who are booked to travel to Denpasar by 28 July 2015 and wish to switch their travel to one of 12 other island and coastal holiday destinations. Guests can learn more about this option by contacting the Guest Contact Centre on 13 67 89 (from Australia).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR GUESTS IN DENPASAR (BALI):
Virgin Australia is advising guests currently in Bali not to travel to Denpasar Airport without a confirmed rebooked flight. Guests will be updated about their flight options via SMS.

Guests whose flights have been cancelled as a result of the volcanic activity will be able to change their booking to another date or alternative destination within 30 days without fee or receive a full travel credit by contacting our Guest Contact Centre on 13 67 89 (from Australia), 00 1803 061 2002* or +61 7 3295 2296 from other international locations.
