Public: airline cabin and airport queues
Sorong
Meet-and-greet at Domine Eduard Osok

Method

How booking works

  1. 01

    Send the tailor-made brief.

    Dates or month, group size, divers versus non-divers, and your preferred order.

  2. 02

    Lock the date.

    The park uses dated tickets, so the travel window is agreed first.

  3. 03

    Review the routing.

    Nonstop or hub connection, and the Sorong transfer method.

  4. 04

    Pick the boat or resort.

    A shortlist matched to group size, month and the land-versus-boat split.

  5. 05

    Confirm and permit.

    Park fees paid online or in person at the harbour.

  6. 06

    Get your handover sheet.

    A contact for each leg, plus the arrival card reminder.
