Bali DO 2008 (Sep. 5-8)

Since it looks like the fares will be low in September and since Bali is also a destination where one can get a spectacular bang for their buck I think a 2008 Bali DO is in order. I will be posting an exact schedule in the next few months, but so far here are some beginning plans...

September 5: Dinner
September 6: Possible tours and Dinner and Drinks
September 7: Departure Lunch

Here are a few of the details about transportation...

Getting In...
-DPS is the main airport and is served by carriers from all major alliances and for members of the One World and Star Alliance, this is a great place to redeem inter-Asia mileage awards from a major regional hub.

Hotels...
-First off, hotels are cheap, and this DO will be centered around Nusa Dua.
-Starwood and Intercontinental users have properties here.
-Additionally, there are a number of hotels that are 4 stars or more that can be had for $90 USD a night here.

Transportation...
-Taxis from the airport to Nusa Dua cost about $6 USD.

Please PM me if you will be attending or are planning on it so I can make sure this DO is properly sized. I will be adding further details throughout the spring.
