Left Darwin last night and the rate being given at the airport was a lousy RP7,120 per dollar. At the airport in Bali upon arrival you can get 8,300 and even more in Kuta (be careful though and always be the last one to touch and count your rupiah before you leave the shop).
Customs here still paranoid over more than 1 litre of grog and they have changed the xray set up - now arriving bags are all scanned just before you go out of the arrival hall - no hiding bottles, etc. in your cases any more!!! Don't give those guys the satisfaction of finding you with more than 1 litre - they confiscate it and then they SELL it!!!!
