Best time to book
₱18,473 was the cheapest CEB–DPS one-way in this site’s fare cache on 2026-08-02, on Philippines AirAsia. It is a cache floor for one date and fare class, not a held quote. Across 7 departure months cached on 2026-08-02 the floor ranged ₱6,243 to ₱10,812.
We take one reading a week and keep it. Over 7 of them the low was ₱9,233 in 2026-W27 and the high ₱32,623 — a 3.5× swing on an unchanged route, which is the single most useful thing this series says. Week to week the last move was down ₱14,150 (43%) from 2026-W29 to 2026-W31. Method, so you can discount it properly: each point is the cheapest one-way the feed could see in that ISO week, not a booked price and not an average of the market, and a week where the poll caught a promotional seat reads lower than the week either side of it. Use the range, not one week’s reading. A fare inside the lower third of that band is a good one on this pair; a fare above the top of it is worth re-checking a week later before you commit.
Cheapest pockets are late January through early March and June to early September (Bali shoulder). Avoid Holy Week, Nyepi (Balinese New Year), and Dec 15-Jan 5, kasi tourism peaks push fares past PHP 38,000. Book 10-14 weeks out po for tipid; combined-fare construction (separate CEB-MNL + MNL-DPS) sometimes mas mura than single-ticket.

Bali Denpasar as an arrival point
4 facts identify the arrival airport on this pair: DPS is Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (DPS/WADD); the local currency is IDR; region Southeast Asia; OFW relevance rated low.
On arrival you are landing at Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport, ICAO WADD, serving Bali Denpasar, Indonesia. Tourism only. Across the whole Philippine market, Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific are the carriers on record as serving Bali Denpasar from home — a wider set than the ones flying this particular pair, which is why a Manila routing sometimes opens options Cebu does not have. One habit worth forming on any arrival: read the airport, not the city name. Big metro areas usually have several airports, and the cheapest fare tends to land at the most distant one — where the transfer into town can cost more than the fare saved. Check which airport your fare actually lands at before you compare two prices, and if you are connecting onward from a different airport in the same city, treat that as a separate journey with its own buffer — no airline protects a connection that involves a taxi.
| Routing | Total time | Typical economy |
|---|---|---|
| CEB → MNL (PR/5J) → DPS (PR/5J) | ~7-9h | PHP 18,000-28,000 |
| CEB → SIN (5J via MNL or onward TR) → DPS (TR/SQ) | ~9-11h | PHP 20,000-30,000 |
Fare bracket (peso-first, via MNL)
₱18,473 was the cheapest CEB–DPS one-way in this site’s fare cache on 2026-08-02, on Philippines AirAsia. It is a cache floor for one date and fare class, not a held quote. Across 7 departure months cached on 2026-08-02 the floor ranged ₱6,243 to ₱10,812.
Across the 7 departure months in our 2026-08-02 cache for this pair (November 2026 through August 2026), the cheapest reading was ₱6,243 in November 2026 and the most expensive ₱10,812 in August 2026. Two caveats keep that honest. First, each month contributes one number — the cheapest one-way the feed found in that month — so this is a floor-by-floor comparison, not an average fare by month, and a month with thin coverage can read artificially low. Second, the months are not a forecast: they describe inventory that was loaded when we polled. What the shape is genuinely useful for is ranking your own flexible dates. If your trip can move by three or four weeks, the difference between the cheapest and dearest month here is larger than almost any discount code will ever be.
- Low (Feb-Mar, Jun-early Sep).
- Mid (Apr-May, Oct-late Nov).
- Peak (Holy Week, Dec 15-Jan 5).
Entry rules for a Philippine passport in Indonesia
Entry rule for Indonesia on a Philippine passport, per kemlu.go.id (checked 2026-10-23) — visa-free for 30 days, not extendable. Confirm it again before booking. ₱18,473 is the lowest one-way the fare feed returned for this route on 2026-08-02. 7 weekly fare snapshots are held for this pair, the most recent from 2026-W31.
Whether Indonesia needs a visa from a Philippine passport holder matters more than it looks. Where a visa is required, the lead time on the application — not the fare — is what fixes your booking window, and buying a non-refundable ticket before the visa is issued is the most common expensive mistake on corridors like this one. Where entry is visa-free or visa-on-arrival, the permission is still conditional: officers routinely ask for an onward ticket, an address, and evidence you can fund the stay, and a visa-free stamp can be refused. Transit adds another layer again — the rule that matters in a connecting airport belongs to the transit country, not to your destination. Visa rules change frequently. Use this as a starting reference only; verify with the destination’s embassy or official immigration portal before booking. For OFW employment visas, follow the DMW deployment process — that is separate from tourist/visit visas.
The cheapest CEB–DPS fare we have on file
₱18,473 is the lowest one-way the Travelpayouts feed returned for CEB–DPS when this route was last polled on 2026-08-02, on Philippines AirAsia, nonstop, for a October 2026 departure. The cached itinerary runs 44.6 hours end to end.
That ₱18,473 is a cache reading, not a quote, and the difference is worth stating plainly. It is the lowest one-way price the fare feed returned for CEB–DPS at the moment it was polled, for one specific departure date, in one specific fare class. Nothing about it is averaged, none of it is a return fare, and no one is holding it: the seats at that price are usually few and can sell while you are still comparing. Three things it also excludes: checked baggage where the carrier sells a bags-free base fare, seat selection, and any change or refund flexibility. Treat it as the floor of the range you should expect to see, then compare the all-in total once the bag you actually need is added back.
FAQ
6 questions below are answered from the route, carrier and fare records this site holds for CEB–DPS. Where a number is a cache floor it is described as one, and where a rule does not hold universally the gaps are spelled out.
Connecting through Manila to reach Bali Denpasar
0 carriers are catalogued nonstop on CEB–DPS. The corridor is flown as a connection, normally through Manila (MNL), with about 4.5 hours of flying before the transfer time is counted.
Everything expensive about a connecting Cebu–Bali Denpasar journey is whether you hold one ticket or two. Manila handled 50,100,000 passengers in 2024 (MIAA / NNIC), so the transfer happens inside a very busy building. On one ticket the carriers accept the connection as their problem: the bag is checked through to DPS, the minimum connecting time published for the airport is what protects you, and a delay on the domestic leg obliges the airline to move you onto the next available onward flight at no charge. On two separately bought tickets none of that holds. You collect the bag in Manila, clear out of the terminal, check in again from scratch, and if the first flight runs late the second airline is entitled to treat you as a no-show and keep the fare. The cheaper two-ticket combination is genuinely cheaper — right up to the first delay, at which point it costs more than the difference it saved.
What is the cheapest Cebu to Bali Denpasar fare on record here? ₱18,473 one-way — the lowest price the fare feed returned for CEB–DPS when this route was last polled on 2026-08-02, on Philippines AirAsia. That is the minimum of one record for one route, not of the whole cache: a floor for a single date and fare class, not a held quote, and it excludes checked baggage where the carrier sells it separately.
How much do CEB–DPS fares move week to week? Across 7 weekly snapshots from 2026-W19 to 2026-W31 the cheapest one-way ranged ₱9,233 to ₱32,623. Each point is the lowest fare visible that week, not an average of the market.
