We have used the lombok ferry for 2 trips to Lombok. We take a hire car which does help as you don't have to lug your luggage around and you drive off without any transport hassles. We take a few Bintangs and some nibbles, good book and the portable DVD player. It does take a while, between 4 and 6 hours but it is OK. I agree though if you have limited time flying may be a better option, we always have 4 weeks so we can spare a few days travelling.
