Flying to Bali: can two or three travelers share one checked bag, and what are practical baggage tips?
Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 15 days ago
TL;DR
Yes — travelers recommend booking Bali flights without checked baggage and adding just one bag for two or three people if you can fit everything into one suitcase plus carry-ons. Oversized rolled items can be carried in a tube, and it’s smart to keep the purchase receipt in case customs asks about it.

If the connection is sold by the airline on its official website as one itinerary, travelers generally treat it as a workable transfer for a Bali trip. Some chose that option specifically because it was the best-priced fare.

Rolled items can be taken on the plane in a tube. The practical tip is to keep the purchase receipt, because customs may ask what the item is and where it came from.
