Advice needed Bali to Shanghai
Hello.
I need advice and help getting from Bali to Shanghai on a budget. I will be wrapping up a vacation with my two kids (9 and 7) and then we head off to Suzhou for a teaching gig. My employers will collect us from Shanghai. I would really appreciate help getting there on a shoestring budget. Glitches, errors, breaking up flights I'm willing to try but to be honest new to travelling so feeling completely overwhelmed. TIA:-:

Check Air Asia for cheap flight. Also look at kayak.com especially for flight to Hong Kong. Then from HK to Shanghai look at Spring airlines that has very cheap flights to Shanghai. But pay attention to their luggage policy.

As others said - usually Air Asia is cheapest on such route, especially one-way.
Also, check out other international airports in the area, like Nanjing and Hangzhou.
In case you're finding a dirt-cheap fare to another airport within China (say, Beijing, Guangzhou) please remember that flights intra-China are only on discount sale 30/45 days in advance. Never ever buy earlier.
But in your case, probably Air Asia will be the cheapest option overall.
