Dili-Denpasar Merpati Flights...
UPDATE (01 NOV 2006): A commentator reports that as of 1 October 2006, Merpati has resumed daily service between Denpasar and Dili again. Knowing Merpati's communications record, I still strongly reommend contacting Merpati diectly for latest information before travelling with them.
I had a look on the site access statistics, and noticed to my surprise that a fair number of people had accessed my blog by searching something like 'dili denpasar flight schedule', which is probably because of this post. Obviously that is not much help for someone who wants to get to Dili, so I try to be nice and give the schedule here. This should be effective from June until further notice, but obviously I take no responsibility of the accuracy of the information. One should probably check Merpati's own site, but it seems to be down as usual, and as far as I remeber, the Dili flights could never be found there anyway.
So, here is the schedule:
Mon
MZ8480 DPS 10:10 -> DIL 13:00
MZ8480 DIL 13:40 -> DPS 14:35
Wed/Fri/Sun
MZ8490 DPS 10:30 -> DIL 13:20
MZ8490 DIL 13:55 -> DPS 14:50
Unfortunately no more flighs Tue/Thu/Sat. This is a communication from some time ago, but be aware that some online travel sevices list the schedules differently (but still flights only Mon/Wed/Fri/Sun). Probably better to call Merpati before travel, telephone (Bali office): +62 361 222864 /...225841 /..228842.

Janne,
Let me also contribute to new comers to East Timor who is at loss of looking for Denpasar-Dili tickets. I was the one 2 years ago.
As of 1 October 2006, Merpati flies every day between Denpasar and Dili. It is valid until further notice and please be remained that further notice does not come as "notice". It is rather an unilateral decision by Merpati and not communicated at all.
