One advantage is that you don't need to be at the airport as early if you do the online check in.
At Denpasar there is a separate queue called Bag drop off (or similar) for those who have already done the online check in - which is supposed to make the process a lot quicker. However, in April the queue moved soooo slowly that the people that didn't do online check in got through before us.
In April when we were leaving Perth we did the online check in. We left plenty of time to get to the airport, however it was the day before good friday and the traffic was really bad. We got stuck in a traffic on tonkin highway (I was in tears thinking that we wouldn't make it)......I was so glad we had done the online check in as I don't think we wouldn't have been able to check in otherwise. Once we arrived the girls we so lovely and quickly did our bags and then rushed with us upstairs to board.
