Labuan Bajo — KM Tilongkabila is scheduled to arrive at Labuan Bajo on 30 October 2026 at 22:00 WITA (UTC+8) and depart at 23:59 WITA (UTC+8), according to published Voyage 20.2026 schedules.

The schedule places the ship on a route linking Benoa, Lembar, Bima, Labuan Bajo, Makassar, Baubau, Raha, Kendari, Luwuk, Gorontalo and Bitung before the return voyage. The vessel is listed as leaving Benoa on 29 October 2026 at 09:00 and reaching Bima on 30 October 2026 at 11:00.

A separate schedule gives the Labuan Bajo call as 22:00–23:59 on 30 October 2026 and lists Makassar next, with arrival at 18:00 and departure at 23:59 on 31 October 2026. The reported schedule does not state that the timetable is final.

Why the timing matters to Labuan Bajo readers

The late arrival and short overnight port call define the window for passengers using the ship to reach or leave Labuan Bajo. The published timetable gives less than two hours between arrival and departure, so the listed times are relevant to anyone coordinating a port transfer or onward connection.

The route information also places Labuan Bajo between Bima and Makassar during Voyage 20.2026. Another report describes the voyage as running from 29 October to 11 November 2026 and identifies the same eastern Indonesian ports, including Benoa, Lembar, Bima, Labuan Bajo and Makassar.
