If you are traveling on a tight budget, instead of booking a direct flight to Denpasar try searching for flights to one of South East Asia's major cities such as Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur or Singapore and catching a connection from there to Bali via a budget airline.
Airfares on International flights outside of South East Asia vary depending on the season. Check with your local agent for prices or search the Internet for specials to Bali.
