KM Lambelu Scheduled to Call at Maumere Early Morning on 23 September 2026

Labuan Bajo — — PT Pelni’s passenger ship KM Lambelu is scheduled to call at Maumere in Flores in the early hours of Wednesday, 23 September 2026, before continuing its voyage eastward, according to several route summaries based on Pelni schedule data.

These schedules show Lambelu arriving in Maumere at 03.00 WITA and departing at 05.00 WITA on 23 September, then sailing on to Larantuka later the same morning. None of the independent summaries reviewed list a direct Maumere–Baubau departure on 23 September, and they instead place Baubau calls earlier in the month.

Sailing timing and route context

According to a Flores-based travel report, KM Lambelu’s September 2026 pattern covers ports in Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Nusa Tenggara and Maluku. On the segment relevant to Flores, the ship is reported to arrive in Maumere at 03.00 WITA and depart at 05.00 WITA on 23 September, then reach Larantuka at 10.00 WITA the same day.

A separate business bulletin from Kupang, published on 19 September, carries an updated Lambelu timetable through mid-October and gives the same 03.00–05.00 WITA window for Maumere on 23 September, followed by Larantuka at 10.00–12.00 WITA. An independent shipping schedule site that collates Pelni data likewise lists Lambelu calling at Baubau on 22 September from 12.00 to 14.00 WITA and at Maumere from 03.00 to 05.00 WITA on 23 September, before continuing east.

Another national outlet summarising Lambelu’s September operations reports the same sequence: Baubau on 22 September and Maumere on 23 September at 03.00–05.00 WITA, followed by Larantuka at 10.00 WITA that day. Taken together, these sources point to KM Lambelu serving Baubau ahead of the Maumere and Larantuka calls, rather than operating a Maumere–Baubau leg on 23 September.

Maumere–Makassar and related fares

Several independent guides focus on the Makassar–Maumere corridor, where Lambelu appears as one of the main Pelni options in September 2026. A widely cited fare for this longer Makassar–Maumere route is around Rp354,500 for adult economy passengers, with classes including economy ex-cabin and standard economy. These reports underline that Pelni ticket prices vary by route, class and passenger category, and that infants and children are priced differently from adults.

In one Makassar–Maumere overview, Lambelu is shown departing Makassar on 21 September at 21.00 WITA and arriving in Maumere at 03.00 WITA on 23 September, with a listed duration of one day and six hours and an adult economy fare of Rp354,500. This timing matches the Maumere arrival window reported in other September Lambelu schedules.

Booking channels and checks

Independent route summaries consistently advise passengers to confirm times and fares through Pelni’s official booking platforms before travelling. According to these guides, tickets for Pelni ships can be purchased via the company’s official website, its mobile application, Pelni ticket offices and authorised agents, with some mentioning retail partners such as convenience-store chains and online booking services as additional sales channels.

Because Pelni timetables and seat availability can change, and because fares depend on route and passenger type, travellers are repeatedly advised to treat Pelni’s own reservation systems as the final reference when planning trips in late September 2026.
