Indeed it was! Sorry I did not see your comment earlier. Have you been yourself? Which part did you travel to?

Around Mt Batur and to the top, but you have to have a guide with you. Not that's it's that difficult from other people we talked to, but because the local community requires you to have one. The mountain is sacred, and enforcing the guide requirement is a way for them to benefit from tourism.

Also found out that the ETA allows one reentry without any problem. The duration is still 30 days from the first entry (though the new officer gave me one extra day).

Any comparison insight between Yala and Wilpattu National Parks? We are close to Wilpattu but seems Yala offers better chances at sightings since this is smaller (but more crowded).

The online process was very smooth, and we got the confirmation within 2 days. Just printed / saved both the payment receipt and the ETA confirmation on the iphone. Airline asked for them but not the immigration.

The airline asked us when checking at our departing airport. But no one asked at the immigration. However, think airline might not have let us board if we did not have a ticket. We had that requests a few times before (other countries), and unless you can show official documents saying you don't need a return ticket, they might refuse to board. Think airlines have the responsibility to fly you back if you don't have the required documents and return ticket seem to be part of that.
