Question 8

How long does it take to fly to East Timor?

Accepted Answer

To keep your travel time to a minimum on flights to East Timor from Australia, your best option is to fly out of Australia’s northernmost airport at Brisbane, heading for Dili, the largest city in the country and its capital. These take off once a week on Qantas Airways and take about 4h and 45min to get there. From Sydney, you can expect the shortest flight times to take around 6h. These are combination flights, starting with either Qantas or Virgin Australia and then transferring to an Airnorth flight on the way. Cheap flights are also available for the first leg by booking on Jetstar. Other flights with Jetstar, Qantas and Virgin Australia take about 8h and 25min, transferring to Sriwijaya Air. Malaysia Airlines offers a round-trip flight that takes about 13h transferring to Malindo Air en route. Departing from Melbourne, you can make the trip in about 5h and 45min again on the same departure airlines. You can also get similar configurations as those out of Sydney, with the longest flight taking about 12h and 45min.

Question 9

Can you get direct flights to East Timor from Australia?

Accepted Answer

You’ll be able to catch non-stop East Timor flights from Brisbane Airport (BNE), flying on Qantas and landing at President Nicolau Lobato International Airport in Dili (DIL). This journey will take about 4h and 45min, making it the shortest flight from Australia. Unfortunately, this is currently the only direct flight on offer between the countries, so if you wish to fly from other Australian cities, be prepared to make at least one stop en route. From Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD), you can fly via Darwin Airport (DRW) on Qantas, Jetstar or Virgin Australia, with Airnorth taking over from the latter two airlines in Darwin. The total flight time is roughly 6h. You can also board the same airlines and fly first to Brisbane, where you’ll switch to a Qantas flight for the final leg of the trip. These airlines also fly a route that goes via Denpasar, landing at Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) for a transfer to Sriwijaya Air, landing in Dili.

Question 10

What is the best way to travel around East Timor?

Accepted Answer

Dili is to the far north of East Timor, and because there isn’t much of a public transport network to speak of, your best bet is to hire a car. You can drive to nearby major towns like Maliana, which takes 2h and twentymin with a car. Suai is on the island’s south coast, but it will only take you about 2h and 30min to get there. Once again you’ll have to drive, as there isn’t any public transport. Likisa is the nearest main town to Dili, easily reachable in only about 30min in your hire car. Baucau is a town where you’ll find a number of tourist attractions, including its Old Town with original Portuguese colonial architecture and many Japanese WWII caves to explore. You can get there in about 2h and 40min by hire car.

Question 11

Does an Australian citizen need a passport or visa to fly to East Timor?

Accepted Answer

You won’t need to organise a visa in advance to travel to East Timor as a tourist – you can simply get a 30-day tourist or business visa when you land at Dili. These are valid for 30 days from your date of entry. This is a once-off visa, but it can easily be extended if you’d like to stay for longer. It will cost about 40 AUD to obtain and about 55 AUD to extend.
