In general, we recommend that people aim to arrive by Tuesday March 10th to Labuan Bajo in case of any travel delays or cancellations - from personal experience, we know that sometimes flights to Labuan Bajo can be cancelled and pushed back a day if the flight is not full.
Labuan Bajo airport (LBJ) is a small airport, with a very limited number of international flights (currently Tu/Th/Sunday from KL, and hopefully a few offered direct from Singapore shortly) and daily flights from Bali, and near daily flights from Jakarta. We recommend Bali as the most reliable daily flights into Labuan Bajo.
For those guests attending from North America: we highly encourage you to book your flights to/from Southeast Asia at your earliest convenience, and recommend that these flights are booked to a major hub in Southeast Asia (such as Bali, Singapore, or Kuala Lumpur), then you can add on the flight into Labuan Bajo at a later date.
For flying from Singapore to Labuan Bajo: The direct flight from Jetstar was cancelled, and we're in a bit of a holding pattern to see when Scoot restarts the route. You can either wait a bit longer to see when Scoot announces the restart, otherwise would recommend a flight that transits through Bali on your way here.
For flying from Jakarta: We recommend flying in on Tuesday March 10th, if possible.
Great news when you arrive - the hotels in Labuan Bajo are only about a 5-15 minute drive away from the airport!
