The world wide tourists that come there depend on the season. Most of the travelers prefer to visit off season, due to easy availability of cheap flights. And those who plan their travel in peak season, book their flights well in advance. When flying into Bali you will arrive at Ngurah Rai International Airport.

If you are a regular traveler you should be very familiar with overseas layovers. Non-availability of direct flights is the core reason behind layovers. For example there are no unbroken flight-routes from Hawaii to Bangkok, Thailand. You will have to deviate and go through either Japan, Korea or Taiwan.

Most travelers try to reach destinations during day-time, but the delay is unavoidable. Sometimes you only have to suffer short breaks between flights. If it is a half an hour or one hour break you will not get enough time to do anything serious. Actually most of the travelers prefer short layovers to get over that lazy feeling during traveling.
