the International Civil Aviation Organisation security standards..
"On December 23, the US Transport Security Administration announced Denpasar Airport did not meet the International Civil Aviation Organisation security standards and directed airlines flying in an out of Bali to warn travellers.
Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs added the TSA warning to its website a few days later"
Some Airlines including Qantas appear to be somewhat more stringent than other Airlines including local ones. There certainly has been changes made to security at the Airport but still not enough to meet the international standards.
