In Reply to: taking in duty free alcohol to Bali posted by jackosmum on Thursday, 24. September 2009 at 19:01 Bali Time:
who the hell would tell you that??
Other posters have correctly advised that you can of course take one litre of alcohol per person (perhaps not clarified re- minimum age of that person) into Bali, and that one litre can be taken as hand luggage (if purchased at the airport upon departure) or in your checked luggage if purchased at an outside Duty Free place, or even a normal bottle shop.
What is of interest is that someone who knows absolutely nothing about what the situation is, should provide concern for a first time or inexperienced traveller.
Sounds like the sort of thing the Australian media would do when it comes to matters Bali.
