Does DPS airport have a specific pickup location for online taxis (not ojeks; we are a family of four)? Or does the taxi mafia still have a stranglehold on rides from the airport?
Fwiw, there is no immigration / customs, as we are coming from Jakarta. Rimowa and Tumi, LOL - try knockoff Samsonite from Mangga DuaI think not for unofficial, only for hotel.
And for a family going on holiday it is not worth the hassle, book the hotel transport let them meet you directly at the exit gate past customs and take you directly to their big comfy van and let them man handle your rimowa and tumi and know exactly where to go, how to get there, and have water cold towels etc
For the sake of $10 it isn't worth pissing about
I am going to do this way for sure. Does booking.com have in-app payment options, or is it cash to the driver?I know it's not what you are asking here but I had so many bad experiences with Bali taxi mafia that the last few times I've been I actually booked my taxi via booking.com and all the drivers I met that way were lovely (waiting for me at exit with a sign - texted me to confirm they were there waiting etc.) - it has a standard price in the app so no need to haggle and it seemed a good price to me. The ease and benefits of grab without any taxi mafia issues cos you are in a bali taxi in the end.
