(7/15/2006) June foreign arrivals at Bali's Ngurah Rai International Airport totaled 109,651 – a number that lagged a full -19.58% behind the 136,369 visitors in June 2005.
As shown on balidiscovery.com, the June 2006 arrivals may indicate that Bali's tourism recovery has stalled, with the gap in month-on-month arrivals widening slightly after encouraging signs of gradual improvement during the period December 2005 – April 2006.
Unfortunately, while the gap in foreign arrivals month-on-month had narrowed to -10.65% in April 2006, that gap widened in the following month to -12.72% in May, worsening further to -19.59% in June 2006.
