Merauke — KM Leuser is scheduled to arrive at Merauke on 22 September 2026 at 16:00 WITA (UTC+8) and depart on 23 September 2026 at 14:00 WITA (UTC+8), according to published voyage schedules.

The available schedule lists the vessel’s route through Merauke, Timika, Dobo, Tual, Saumlaki, Ambon and other ports. It does not show a call at Labuan Bajo or another Komodo-area port during the Merauke call period.

Why it matters to Komodo travellers

The published timing does not identify KM Leuser as making a Komodo-area call on 22 or 23 September 2026. Labuan Bajo is listed in the broader route information, but the available September schedule places the vessel at Merauke on 22–23 September.

One published route listing identifies Labuan Bajo among the ports served on the wider voyage, alongside Surabaya, Denpasar, Bima, Makassar, Bau Bau, Wanci, Namrole, Ambon, Saumlaki, Tual, Dobo, Timika, Agats and Merauke. The same schedule gives the Merauke call as 22 September 2026 at 16:00 to 23 September 2026 at 14:00.

A separate schedule report gives the same Merauke arrival and departure times and lists the vessel’s subsequent Timika call from 25 September 2026 at 06:00 to 08:00 WITA (UTC+8). The reports available for this item do not state a Komodo-area call connected to the Merauke stop.
