TL;DR
The cheapest options are package tours via Chinese carriers or Emirates (with layover), or self-assembled multi-stop itineraries. Budget package tours can come out cheaper than booking flights alone.

This season Asia flight prices have risen noticeably — fares around 120k RUB are no longer seen like last year. Only Emirates-route flights got cheaper, though flying via UAE is debated. Tickets via China for December cost 175k RUB for two.

A multi-segment route Moscow–Singapore (via Beijing)–Denpasar–Kuala Lumpur–Moscow (via Beijing) cost 69,500 RUB per person with checked baggage on all segments (with better timing it could be found for 66-68k). Emirates/UAE routes were deliberately excluded for safety reasons, even though they were cheaper.

Package tours to Bali can undercut the cost of booking flights independently, especially for two people. Hotels in these packages tend to be basic, but it's a viable budget option. Seminyak is a solid area to stay.

The cheapest tours to Bali typically fly via Chinese carriers (regular flights with a China layover) or charter flights through the UAE. Both options involve at least one stopover.

Finding cheap independent flights to Bali requires flexibility: multiple stopovers, date shopping, catching sales, and sometimes overnight layovers in hub cities. Without this flexibility, budget fares are hard to find.
