What SUB to DPS looks like
The SUB to DPS sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Surabaya SUB to Bali DPS is a short sector of 303 km by great circle, flown nonstop 14.2 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 303 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 57 min.
Surabaya SUB is a smaller airport in the network held here, 39 scheduled destinations and 129.7 departures a day. Bali DPS has 61 destinations and 211.1 departures a day.
Bali is one hour ahead of Surabaya all year.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on SUB to DPS from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| SUB to DPS | 14.22 | 99.5 | Batik Air, Citilink, Garuda Indonesia, Lion Air, SW Italia |
| DPS to SUB | 13 | 91 | Batik Air, Citilink, Garuda Indonesia, Lion Air, SW Italia |
5 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
At 14.2 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 190.5 departures a week on SUB to DPS, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 57 min block time on SUB to DPS. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to SUB | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At SUB before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| SUB to DPS in the air, estimated | 57 min | 5h 27m |
| Formalities at DPS | 90 min | 6h 57m |
| Delivery run in Bali | 45 min | 7h 42m |
| Door to door | 462 min | 7h 42m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for SUB to DPS is 7h 42m.
A courier who leaves Surabaya at 09:00 local is on the ground in Bali at about 10:57 local and at the door by 13:12 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Bali, the last useful departure from Surabaya is around 13:48 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 7 of them join SUB to DPS.
| Connecting at | SUB to hub, flights a day | Hub to DPS, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lombok LOP | 6.71 | 12.86 | 536 | 2h 48m |
| Makassar UPG | 13.43 | 5.86 | 1,425 | 4h 06m |
| Jakarta CGK | 24.71 | 36.71 | 1,674 | 4h 16m |
| Singapore SIN | 5.43 | 18.43 | 3,047 | 6h 08m |
| Kuala Lumpur KUL | 7.71 | 14.57 | 3,631 | 6h 53m |
| Hong Kong HKG | 1.14 | 3 | 6,760 | 10h 24m |
With 14.2 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
7 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Lombok LOP, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 6.7 times a day.
Through LOP the routing covers 536 km against the 303 km nonstop track and takes about 2h 48m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 51m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Makassar UPG at 4h 06m and Jakarta CGK at 4h 16m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
The two ends are only 303 km apart in a straight line. Allowing a road track a quarter longer than that and eighty kilometres an hour, a car covers it in about 4h 44m, so a courier who misses the flight drives rather than connects, and on a short deadline the road is often the plan from the start.
Restricted hours at either end
Widely documented operating restrictions, checked 2026-09-07. Exemptions and seasonal variations exist, so confirm with the carrier before relying on any of them.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for SUB to DPS in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
