Who answers
One desk, licensed operators behind it
Currentline Alor is an independent dive-travel concierge for the Alor and Pantar frontier in East Nusa Tenggara. We do not run boats.
The Bali Premium Trip reservations team curates and confirms your trip with established, licensed Alor operators such as Dive Alor Dive, Nautika Dive Alor and Alami Alor. You get one point of contact and a plan built around real conditions on the ground.
If you are unsure of any detail, message us anyway. Part of the concierge job is helping you work out whether Alor suits your experience level before you commit to anything.
Nothing is charged until you approve a written quotation.
Six details
What to include in your first message
The more you tell us up front, the faster we can shape an honest, workable itinerary. A short message with these essentials is enough to start.
Two routes
How quickly will each channel reply?
WhatsApp is fastest for planning and availability; email suits detailed itineraries, group manifests and documents. Both reach the same reservations team.

Response times are indicative and can stretch during peak season or Indonesian public holidays. If a date is time-sensitive, say so in your first line and we will prioritise it.
Quoted, not listed
What will your Alor trip cost to plan?
Alor has no publicly published, citable price list for dive packages, liveaboards or the marine-park fee — only the fact that a permit and fee are required. So we quote in writing instead of publishing a figure.
Every quote excludes flights, the marine-park permit fee and mandatory dive-accident insurance, and is confirmed only in writing. For a fuller breakdown see the expedition prices page, then bring your shortlist back to the concierge.

Straight answers
Frequently Asked Questions
01 Do I book Alor dives directly or through the concierge?
You enquire through Currentline Alor, and the Bali Premium Trip reservations team handles the booking directly on your behalf. We are an independent concierge, so the diving itself is run by licensed Alor operators such as Dive Alor Dive, Nautika Dive Alor or Alami Alor. One contact, vetted partners, and no boats of our own.
02 What certification and dive experience should I send before booking?
Send your agency and certification level, your total logged dives, and your most recent dive date. Alor operators typically require a minimum of PADI Open Water for fun diving, and 50 to 100 logged dives are recommended for comfort in the Pantar Strait's strong currents. Honest numbers let us match you to suitable sites.
03 Is dive-accident insurance required to confirm an Alor trip?
Yes. DAN or equivalent dive-accident insurance is mandatory because the nearest hyperbaric chamber is in Bali, and evacuation or chamber costs are not covered by standard medical insurance. Have your policy details ready when you contact us. We confirm the requirement with your chosen licensed operator before your booking is finalised.
04 When should I contact you to catch the pelagic season?
Reach out early. The best diving conditions run April to November, with October and November bringing the most prevalent currents, and September the best month for mola mola. Liveaboards through Alor–Pantar mostly run a September–October window, so berths fill months ahead. Message us as soon as your dates firm up.
05 Can the concierge arrange the Alor marine-park permit and briefing?
Yes. Alor's waters are a marine protected area, so every diver must attend a mandatory MPA officer briefing, pay a marine-park fee, and hold a permit before any marine activity. Your licensed operator arranges these on the ground; we coordinate the details in advance so nothing delays your first dive.
