AirAsia has launched its Big Bali Bonanza sale, giving South Australians a budget-friendly excuse to lock in a Bali escape, with one-way fares starting from just $185. The sale comes from an airline that continues to dominate the low-cost category, having been named Skytrax World’s Best Low-Cost Airline for 16 consecutive years.

AirAsia currently operates direct flights from Adelaide to Bali, offering South Australians a simple, affordable and stress-free way to reach Indonesia without transiting through the east coast.

Onboard, AirAsia’s in-flight dining is a standout in its own right. The airline’s food brand Santan is known for delivering generous, great-value meals that regularly surprise first-time flyers. Fan favourites like Pak Nasser’s Nasi Lemak and Uncle Chin’s Chicken Rice are the original classics and remain among the most popular picks, while menus also reflect the destinations AirAsia flies to. Indonesian services feature local flavours such as Balinese Mixed Rice, available for just AUD6 when pre-booked, while Thai routes offer options like Thai Basil Chicken Rice. On longer-haul flights, travellers may find heartier dishes including Char Kway Teow. The result is a rotating menu of familiar comfort food and regional specialities that makes eating well in the air both easy and affordable.

AirAsia also extends value beyond the flight itself through its “Hot Boarding Pass” program, which allows passengers to show their boarding pass at participating venues and partners at their destination to unlock exclusive deals and perks, turning a flight ticket into a broader travel pass.

Here’s some of the great Hot Boarding Pass deals for Bali:

1. Atlas Beach Club = Free Entry
2. Cafe Del Mar = 15% Discount on FnB
3. Whiterock Beach Club = 15% Discount Minimum Spend on Day Bed
4. Bali Beer Cycle = 20% Discount on selected packages

Australia remains one of Bali’s most important source markets, with the Australian Bureau of Statistics reporting a 7 per cent increase in Australian travel to Indonesia in 2025, making it the most visited destination for Australians last year.

Big Bali Bonanza sale fares are available for a limited time via the AirAsia MOVE app, airasia.com, online travel agents and authorised travel partners. The sale runs until 17 January 2026, for travel up to 31 March 2026, with fares subject to availability and conditions.
