I was there after both B1 and B2. In October it was very quiet but optimism was everywhere. Very depressing going out at night seeing all these fabulous restuarants with no customers. A good friend of the BTF sms me last night and said he'd never seen it so quiet which is a bit of a worry.
I doubt if QANTAS or GARUDA are going to go belly up, but I hope you aren't staying in a hotel owned by the AP owner, like he hasn't screwed us for enough money?!?
Anyway go and enjoy it all, beware of maleria and support the people. It isn't the Bali of past as you probably are aware, but still is great place for a holiday.
Oh and the best breakfast, Lanai near Kumala Pantai.
Have a G&T for 4.
Enjoy!!!
