Are there direct flights? How to buy a cheap direct flight ticket. Pay attention to the average price

Are there direct flights from Moscow to Albania? This question interests many fans of organized tourism from Russia. And we have good news for them. Russian tourists will be able to get there this year on board charter airliners. This is the first time they will have such an opportunity.

Charter flights between Tirana and Moscow should establish a number of largest tour operators Russia. Departures will be once a week from June 21 to September 20, 2018. The management of the companies does not exclude that flights to Albania will be carried out from other Russian cities. More detailed information about this should appear in December 2017.

Flights on the Moscow-Albania route will be carried out using the Airbus A321 aircraft, capable of accommodating 210 passengers. It is not yet known which airline will provide this plane. We only know that we are talking about a Russian air carrier. According to preliminary data, flights from Moscow will take place at 11 am local time.

It is expected that after the flight from Moscow to Tirana there will also be a transfer to the hotels, the duration of which will vary depending on the resort. Thus, a transfer to hotels in Durres will take 40-50 minutes, while a trip to the resort in Saranda can take up to 6 hours.

According to preliminary data, the cost of comprehensive packages for holidaymakers in Albania will start at 40 thousand Russian rubles for two travelers. At the same time, tourists, if desired, will be able to enjoy an All Inclusive vacation.

Even with the absence direct flights Albania and the Russian Federation are in increasingly high demand from Russian tourists. Thus, according to the online search engine Aviasales, in the summer of 2017, the number of bookings of connecting flights from the Russian Federation to Albania increased 2.5 times year on year. At the same time, the average price of such a flight increased by 12 percent and reached 31 thousand rubles. As a rule, Russians fly to Albania on flights with transfers in Istanbul (Pegasus Airlines and Turkish Airlines), in Rome (Alitalia) or in Vienna (Austrian Airlines).

As stated CEO Astrit Kurti, representing the host of Intours Albania: “Despite the fact that previously there was no existence between our countries direct message, Russian tourists have long been interested in the Albanian market, the annual increase according to INSTAT (National Institute of Statistics) ranged from 10% to 15%. Albania attracts many with its mystery, but few know about its rich cultural heritage And beautiful nature with picturesque canyons and beautiful clean beaches both on the Adriatic and Ionian coasts.

Our country has a great potential for tourism; we have something to offer for any type of tourist - both family holiday in secluded places, and leisure for young people. This year alone we have made more than 80,000 tourists from all over the world a little happier.”

Let us remind you that tour operators from Ukraine and Belarus have already organized charter flights to Albania. At its peak, the number of flights reached 4-5 per week. It should be remembered that Ukrainians and Belarusians, as a rule, do not need to holiday season. And use visa-free regime possible up to 90 days.

BinterCanarias and Islas Airways operate several flights daily flights to neighboring islands. Flight time: Tenerife (TFN) - La Palma (SPC) – 35 minutes, Grand-Canaria ...

Usually this stage is decisive in planning an independent trip.
Here's what we can recommend:

Reduce your search time

Prices from different airlines and booking agencies can vary greatly. Here is just a small illustration of the difference in prices for the most popular destinations. As you can see, there is no one agency that is the best in all areas.

In order to find best price, you would have to go through all the websites of agencies and airlines.
We'll do it for you and compare prices from over 40 top agencies across 700 airlines to find the best deal.


Plan your flight in advance

It’s trite, but true - the closer to departure, the higher the ticket price. There are, of course, exceptions to the rules, but you shouldn’t rely on them.

Have you figured out where to fly? Go to www.aviasales.ru and look for a ticket. Perhaps its price will seem attractive to you the first time.
If not, no worries: just sign up for the destination and we will notify you when the flight price changes.

Use the low price calendar

If it’s not very important to you when to fly on vacation, use the low price calendar. By indicating the direction, you can clearly see prices for all months and choose the best option. How to use the calendar - watch our video:

Check if there are direct flights?

Everyone likes direct flights - it's so convenient. One take-off, one landing - and you are at the end point without suffering or inconvenience.
If so, let's first check the availability of direct flights between the desired cities.
Aviasales.ru suggests looking at detailed information associated with the direction you have chosen.
City pages besides useful information about a specific city contain information about direct flights.
Example: Cheap flights to Istanbul.

Knowing information about the availability of direct flights, you can start your search on the desired day of the week or understand which airlines operate flights on this route.


Pay attention to the average price

We recently conducted an experiment - we asked people on the street: “How much do you think the flight Moscow - Berlin, for example, or Moscow - Barcelona costs?”

Very few could answer the question correctly. It’s the same when searching for tickets - when you get the first result, it’s not always clear how good or bad the price is.


Feel free to open the panel and you will see prices for the upcoming dates.


As you can see, the difference in prices can reach 50%. So use the calendar and save!


Wait or buy? That is the question!

Okay, let's say the ticket is found.

Now the nagging question arises: should you wait or buy now? Ticket prices vary and the same ticket can have different prices even on the same day.

Our advice: if the price of the ticket you find is lower than the average price for the destination, buy it!

If the price is higher and there is still time before departure, you can try to play a price war with the airlines.

Just sign up for a referral and we'll send you notifications when the price changes.

Knows everything about how to find the cheapest ticket

Bali is a mystical island lost in the Java Sea. There is probably no person who has never heard about him in his life. It attracts with its beauty, mysterious culture, tropical sun and ocean. But a flight to such a far corner of the Earth, as a rule, costs a pretty penny, and therefore almost everyone who has ever thought about traveling there is interested in the question: how to fly to Bali cheaply? In this article I will review all flight options to the island, and at the end we will be able to evaluate how to get to Bali from Moscow or other Russian cities in the cheapest way.

How to get to Bali cheaply from Moscow - air tickets to Bali prices

Of course, first of all, we will consider a flight to Bali from Moscow, because there are significantly more flights from the capital than from other cities in the country. Bali airport is located in Denpasar, i.e. we need to look for options on the route Moscow → Denpasar.

Below is a convenient table with current prices for this route for the whole year ahead. The price is for round trip tickets.

Direct flights from Moscow to Bali

Finally! In August 2018, Aeroflot announced the sale of tickets for a direct flight from Moscow to Bali. Previously, it was impossible to fly to Bali on a direct flight; there were only charters for package tourists.

Direct flights to Bali will be operated during the high season - from October 28, 2018 to March 30, 2019 - on a Boeing 777 aircraft jointly with Rossiya Airlines. Air ticket sales are already open, make sure to book as soon as possible to dilute the cold season with the hot sun of the fairytale islands.

Visa to China

Russians do not need a visa to transit through Guangzhou (as well as Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Xi'an, Chongqing, Kunming, Shenyang, Guilin and Dalian). To get a 72-hour stamp at the airport allowing you to enter the city, you will only need to provide a ticket confirming that you only have a connection in China, and then you will fly on to a third country. Mishuta and I were flying through Beijing and had no intention of going into the city, but we still had to get a stamp, because... I had to get my luggage and then check in again for the next flight, despite the fact that I was essentially buying one ticket. Perhaps this is a feature of Chinese airlines that luggage is not checked in immediately to the final destination.

Advantages and disadvantages

+ One transfer;
+ Same airline;
+ The price for the coming months is the most favorable;
+
+ The connection will most likely be in the same terminal.
It is necessary to re-check your luggage during a transfer (not always!).

2. Moscow - Hong Kong (China) - Bali

In general, this is a rather strange option for flying to Bali, but I still decided to consider it. In addition, I personally met families traveling along this route. The main reason I mention this option is that flights to Hong Kong can often be found at incredibly competitive prices. We even flew to Moscow from Hong Kong for only 8 thousand rubles, and even in eastern cities in our country (Vladivostok, Irkutsk, Novosibirsk, etc.), sometimes air tickets are sold for 5 thousand rubles. There are direct flights from Hong Kong to Bali, for example, with Cathay Pacific. Their prices are average, but when combined with cheap flight tickets from Russia to Hong Kong, you get a very affordable option.

Flights to Bali from Southeast Asian countries - Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore

Another simple option is to plan your own flight across countries. South-East Asia. This is how we usually fly to Indonesia. We flew from Bangkok to Bali, from Jakarta to Phuket, from Singapore to Bali and from Bali to Kuala Lumpur. Air traffic in this segment is very well developed, literally more or less big cities Southeast Asia have international airports. Below I will consider in more detail all these flight plans to Bali with transfers. And then I will choose the most convenient and least expensive.

1. Moscow - Singapore (Singapore) - Bali

I have been to Indonesia several times and always flew there with a connection in Singapore. It’s convenient and nice because Singapore is beautiful, one of my favorite cities, and Singapore Changi Airport is one of the top five in the whole world. An excellent option to combine a visit to a modern technogenic metropolis with a spiritual tropical island in the ocean. The contrast is very bright and unusual!

To get to know the city during transit, my guide to Singapore is suitable.

For several years there were no direct flights between Moscow and Singapore, but currently Singapore Airlines has resumed service on this route, so you can safely fly to the coolest city I adore, Singapore, without transfers!

From Singapore to Bali it’s ridiculous low prices— from $40, thanks TigerAir. The so-called Tigers are a Singaporean low-cost airline that flies to most countries in Southeast Asia, as well as India. Tiger Air has two flights daily from Singapore to Bali.

Singapore visa

For Russian citizens, it is valid, stamped directly at Changi Airport upon arrival. That is, it is not necessary to obtain a Singapore visa in advance. But there is a condition that to receive such transit you must fly to Singapore from one country and fly to a third country. When traveling from Russia to Bali, this condition is met, so no problems arise. The only thing is to print out your departure ticket from Singapore, which you may need to present to the visa officer.

Advantages and disadvantages

+ You can see a new country and you don’t need a visa;
+ If the situation is favorable, you can plan your flight on a fairly budget;
+ Flights to this direction operate almost daily.
The route will be executed different airlines(these conditions for transporting luggage are different, and Tiger Air has a separate surcharge for luggage, since it is a low-cost company);
Connections can be from different terminals (but Singapore has excellent navigation and a free shuttle between all terminals);
Intimidating for some independent planning travel and purchasing tickets in several stages (first from one airline, then from another).

2. Moscow - Bangkok (Thailand) - Bali

The most convenient way to fly to Bangkok is with a direct airline flight. Aeroflot. If you plan your trip in advance, it is not difficult to find very good deals on air tickets. In addition, direct flights to the capital of Thailand are provided by Russian airline S7 from Novosibirsk. From Bangkok, fly with AirAsia.

AirAsia is the most popular air carrier in Southeast Asia. This airline flies to Bali from both Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur. Every day from Bangkok there is at least one flight to Denpasar, often even two.

Visa to Thailand

Russian citizens do not need to obtain a visa to Thailand in advance. A stamp allowing you to stay in the country for up to 30 days is affixed upon arrival right at the airport. So you can safely plan your trip to see Bangkok for a couple of days, or even more.

Advantages and disadvantages

+ One transfer;
+ You can go into the city and don’t need a visa;
+ You can plan your flight on a fairly budget;
+ Flights to this direction operate almost daily.
The route will be operated by different airlines (this and baggage transportation conditions are different);
Connections can be from different terminals and even airports (for example, arriving from Russia to Suvarnabhumi airport, and departure to Bali from Don Muang Airport);
Some people are put off by planning their trip on their own and buying tickets in several stages (first from one airline, then from another).

3. Moscow - Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) - Bali

Flying to Bali via Kuala Lumpur is not difficult, and often very cheap, because... the capital of Malaysia is literally the center of the most famous and affordable low-cost airlines - AirAsia and Malindo. For this reason, flying from Kuala Lumpur to Denpasar will not be expensive. Unfortunately, today there are no direct flights from Russia to Malaysia, although there used to be a direct flight from Transaero. Therefore, this option is unlikely to be convenient for those who value convenience and saving time. Well, for budget travelers it is quite possible to consider such a scheme. AirAsia has five flights daily from Kuala Lumpur to Bali. We used Malindo Air to fly on the route Bali - Kuala Lumpur.

MalindoAir. Another low-cost airline flying from Kuala Lumpur to Bali. Malindo is a Malay company that operates two flights daily to Denpasar. Their ticket prices are also very reasonable, with one-way prices starting at $40. I have previously written my review about Malindo Air.

Visa to Malaysia

Russians do not need to obtain a visa to Malaysia in advance. A free stamp allowing you to stay in the country for up to 30 days is placed directly at the airport upon arrival. Now you don’t even need to fill out migration cards, the only thing you will be asked to do is take your fingerprints. So in this regard there are no special problems.

Advantages and disadvantages

+ You can see a new country and you don’t need a visa;
+ You can plan your flight profitably;
+ Flights to this direction operate almost daily.
Two transfers, because There are currently no direct flights from Russia to Malaysia;
The route will be operated by different airlines (this and baggage transportation conditions are different);
The connection will most likely be from different terminals;
Some people are put off by planning their trip on their own and buying tickets in several stages (first from one airline, then from another).

How to fly to Bali cheaply and conveniently - the best options and conclusions

So, in all of the above information, I suggested several flight plans. Since the cost of air tickets changes every day, it is better to track specific prices through such a convenient calendar.

And my ready-made options will help you decide which route is best to fly to Bali. Based on the pros and cons of each scheme, the following conclusions can be drawn:

1. The most affordable and convenient option would be to fly from Russia to Bali with a Chinese airline. Firstly, this is the most cheap option if you buy a ticket right away Moscow — Denpasar, and not separately. Secondly, a reliable airline. Thirdly, there is a convenient connection, and if you wish, you can go into the city, or even spend up to three days in China, and you do not need to obtain a visa for this.

2. In second place is definitely the option through Dubai, because... It’s convenient to fly this route, whatever you say, the cost of tickets is higher than for the Chinese, but the connection is also convenient and the airport is excellent. And there are no problems with a visa - a 30-day stamp, with which you can safely walk around the luxurious metropolis. In addition, an inexpensive and convenient metro runs from Dubai airport to the center. Depending on the dates you can choose good options air tickets in the direction Moscow - Bali with Emirates airline.

3. Third place for me is shared by flight options through Bangkok, Singapore and Hong Kong. The reason for my choice is that in these cases only one transfer is needed, the cost of successfully combining offers from airlines is one of the most favorable, and when going to these cities you do not need to obtain a visa in advance - stamps are affixed at the airport. The only thing is that you will have to do the selection of connections yourself, which scares off many. But don't worry, it's easier than it seems. Using tables current prices, you can easily plan your trip on a budget.


4. In penultimate place I will put the flight from Qatar Airways via Doha. Although very often, unfortunately, today the situation is such that their flights to Bali cannot be called cheap. But from time to time there are good sales, so take a closer look at Qatar when planning your trip, maybe there will be good flight options for your dates. The disadvantage is that you can’t really get out into the city, and the wait at the airport can reach 12 hours, but there is only one transfer, while many Middle Eastern ones have two (for example, Etihad). You can look at the offers of Qatar Airways on the Moscow - Denpasar route for your dates and decide which is best.

5. Well then last place flight option from Russia to Bali via Kuala Lumpur. Despite the fact that local low-cost airlines offer very cheap flights from Malaysia to Denpasar, today, unfortunately, there are no direct flights to Kuala Lumpur from Russia, which means you will have to make at least one more transfer, due to which the flight will be more expensive and take longer. Let's hope that the situation will change in the future.

In this article we looked at the most profitable flights to Bali. As you can see, if you wish, you can find quite affordable options. On average, an inexpensive flight to Bali is considered to cost 35-40 thousand rubles for a round trip flight. Considering such a long distance, this cost is quite reasonable. If you have any questions, ask them in the comments.

From my personal experience I can say that in all cases I flew to Bali and other islands of Indonesia from Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. Flights from them were ridiculously cheap - $14 to Sumatra, $28 to Java and up to $40 to Bali. Of course, from Russia, as we found out, flying to Malaysia or Singapore is quite expensive, but if you are spending a long vacation or trip in Thailand or other countries of Southeast Asia, then getting to Kuala Lumpur and Singapore will be very simple and cheap, and From there you can make a trip to Bali, which is what we actually did with our child :)
