Peak season:
Generally speaking, Indonesia’s dry season – running from June through September – is peak tourist season. A lot of entertainment venues close up during Ramadan, and a lot of Indonesians tend to spend time with their families at the end of this time, also known as Eid Al-Fitr. If you’re planning on surfing, make sure you book a cheap flight to Indonesia somewhere between April and September. Keep in mind that peak season in Indonesia sees a spike in accommodation and flight rates, so be sure to book your flights well in advance if you’re planning a peak season Indonesian holiday.
Off season:
Indonesia’s wet season runs from mid-January through to March and also marks the off season for touristic activities, although this varies greatly depending on which island you’re visiting. The off season offers you with the opportunity to find cheaper flight and accommodation deals, but do make sure you book well in advance to avoid stumbling into availability issues at some of the more popular islands such as Bali.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Indonesia, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, January is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 28.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of July, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 26.0 C).
The Indonesian archipelago has tropical temperatures year round, which means that any time can be a great time to visit the country. The best time to book a flight to Indonesia would generally be between May and September if you’re looking at enjoying dry, sunny weather, but this can cost a lot more than it would should you book a flight between August and April.

I recently flew to Singapore on flight 21 April 28, 2024. From the time I was greeted at the aircraft door your cabin crew was warm welcoming, smiling and dressed sharped in their uniforms. I've flown around the world and this was my first time on singapore airline. Jason was very attentive to all of my needs. Kelly did made sure my food was correct and it was served at perfect temperature. Mohan check made sure i stayed hydrated they did a beautiful dinner service and lunch service. Everytime I went to the bathroom Ploy had my favorite drink ready. Even though I was in premium economy they gave us first class treatment. I truly enjoyed everything from start to finish on my flight. Even though this is the longest flight in the world I was thankful for the comfort your crew provided me in this journey. Having this amazing crew will surely bring me back on your airline for my vacation travel to Asia. Please give them a special thanks from me. These are memories I will cherish.
