**To request an accurate Flores luxury yacht charter quote, send the reservations team four things: exact dates, guest count, preferred yacht class, and the arc segment you want (Komodo NP only, or east toward Riung and Maumere). With those four inputs, a full-vessel, itemized quote lands within hours.**
Most quote requests stall because they skip one of those four inputs. A charter is priced per boat, not per person, so a vague message like “how much for Komodo in July?” forces the reservations team to guess your dates and party size, then hedge the number. Give them the full picture up front and you get a firm, itemized price instead of a range.
What information does the reservations team need to quote you?
Copy this checklist into your first message. Every line moves the number, so fill in all of them rather than leaving the team to assume.
- Exact or approximate dates — even a two- or three-day window helps. Peak demand is July and August; May-June and September-October are quieter shoulder months, which affects both availability and rate.
- Guest count — how many adults and children. Day trips seat up to 23 guests; multi-day liveaboard charters cap at roughly 10-12 depending on the vessel.
- Number of nights — 4 days covers the essential highlights; 7 days is the most popular length; a full Flores program runs up to 15 days.
- Yacht class — modern motor yacht or sailing yacht, and your comfort tier (see the table below).
- Arc segment — Komodo National Park only, or a longer run east along the Flores coast.
- Embarkation point — almost always Komodo Airport (LBJ) and Labuan Bajo port.
- Special requests — dive days, dietary needs, honeymoon or celebration setup, accessibility.
Send those seven lines and your quote comes back itemized rather than as a hedge. For the full pricing framework and the vessel classes behind these numbers, read the parent guide to a luxury charter quote first. If you are missing a detail, say so — the team will quote two scenarios so you can compare side by side.
How do you describe the arc segment you actually want?
This is the input travelers most often leave out, and it is the one that changes the price most. “Flores” and “Komodo” are not the same trip. The segment you name sets the fuel burn, the number of nights, and the whole route. Use this table to point to the stretch you mean.
| Arc segment | Core sights | Typical length | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Labuan Bajo day loop | Padar, Pink Beach, Manta Point, Kelor, Kanawa | 1 day | First taste, tight schedule |
| Komodo NP core | Padar, Komodo & Rinca dragons, Taka Makassar, Gili Laba | 4 days | Essential highlights |
| Komodo NP in depth | Northern and southern park sites, multiple dive days | 7 days | The most popular full-park trip |
| Full Flores arc | Komodo NP, then east to Riung 17-Islands and Maumere Bay | 15 days / 14 nights | Expedition travelers going beyond the crowds |
| Bali-Komodo via Lombok & Sumbawa | Cross-island passage plus park | 10-14 days | Guests starting in Bali |
Naming the segment matters because a modern crewed yacht can run west into Komodo National Park and then keep going east along the Flores coast — past Riung’s 17-island snorkeling group to Maumere Bay — territory the standard day-boat circuit never reaches. Tell the team “east past Riung” and the quote reflects a real expedition; leave it vague and you get a park-only price that undercounts your trip.
Which yacht class should you specify?
Meridian Flores arranges modern motor and sailing yachts, not phinisi or day boats. Telling the team your class and comfort tier narrows availability fast, because the fleet that can cover the east-Flores distance in comfort is smaller than the day-boat pool.
| Class | Feel | Typical capacity | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Modern motor yacht | Fast, stable, air-conditioned | Up to 12 on multi-day | Best for covering the east-Flores distance |
| Sailing yacht | Quieter passages, wind-assisted | Varies by vessel | For guests who want to actually sail |
| Compact liveaboard | Intimate, single-group | ~10-12 | One example vessel: 5 cabins (2 double, 2 bunk, 1 twin), max 12 |
If you are unsure, describe your group instead. A family of six wanting stable cabins gets a different recommendation than four divers chasing bottom time, and the reservations team would rather match a vessel to how you travel than sell you a class name.
What does a full-vessel charter quote include?
A fully-crewed private charter is close to all-inclusive on board. As of 2026, a standard quote covers:
- The yacht for your exclusive use — no shared cabins with strangers
- A professional captain and crew
- A private chef and all meals plus non-alcoholic beverages
- Fuel for the agreed itinerary
- Snorkeling equipment
- Onboard water toys such as paddleboards, kayaks and inflatables (the exact toys vary by vessel)
Because the boat is priced whole, adding guests up to the cabin limit spreads the same base cost across more people rather than multiplying it. A couple and a group of eight can charter the same vessel; the per-person math simply changes.
What is not in the quote, and how should you budget for it?
Two categories usually sit outside the base charter price, so ask about them directly rather than assuming they are bundled.
National park permits and fees. Komodo National Park charges per-person entry permits, dragon-viewing fees and, in some cases, dive or photography permits, paid at the ranger stations on Rinca and Komodo islands. Pricing is set by the park authorities and changes periodically, so budget a combined per-person, per-day cost for park entry and ranger guiding. The reservations team will confirm current tariffs when they quote.
Alcohol, flights and extras. Flights into Komodo Airport (LBJ) — roughly 75 minutes from Bali — alcoholic drinks, and personal spending are typically separate. Every charter vessel in the park must meet strict safety standards including life jackets, emergency communications and fire extinguishers, and that compliance is built into the price, not an add-on.
How long until you get your quote, and what happens next?
With a complete request the concierge usually replies within hours during Labuan Bajo business hours. You will receive a per-boat price, an outline itinerary, and a note on park fees. Here is representative USD pricing as of 2026, per boat, private charter, to calibrate expectations before you write in:
| Duration | 1-2 guests | 3-4 guests | 5-6 guests | 7-8 guests |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 Days / 1 Night | USD 2,000 | USD 2,240 | USD 2,350 | USD 2,640 |
| 3 Days / 2 Nights | USD 2,240 | USD 2,440 | USD 2,550 | USD 2,640 |
| 4 Days / 3 Nights | USD 2,460 | USD 2,640 | USD 2,820 | USD 2,940 |
A one-day Komodo tour from Labuan Bajo starts at USD 1,850 for 1-4 guests. These figures publish in USD only with no official IDR equivalent, so any rupiah conversion is an outside estimate, and every number is subject to change — confirm the live rate with the reservations team before you book.
Once you approve the quote, the team holds your dates, confirms the vessel, and hands you a pre-departure brief. To start, message WhatsApp +62 811-3823-875 or email sales@komodoluxury.com with your seven-line checklist and you will have an itemized price back the same day.
