If your choice is between a 1+ hour connection and a 5.5 hour connection, you book the shorter one and hope for the best.
But of course, then you don't go and purchase a separate ticket
after that without understanding the not insignificant risks (compounded by the horrendous reliability of this flight -- ExpertFlyer showing average delay of 135 minutes)
It looks like same-say one-way fares from CGK to DPS on AirAsia are only US$40-50. So shouldn't be that big of a deal to rebook that. Definitely worth the risk given the substantial price differential vs. flying straight to DPS per the OP.
