(1) Yes , I think so , but remember , this is for vaccinated people . And not only Bali , seems that if you arrive in Jakarta (for example) , there will be no quarantine too (but there is no Visa-on-arrival there yet) .

(2) Yes , as far as I know , there was/is no quarantine for domestic flights .

The government has decided to drop the antigen and polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, test requirement for domestic travels as the country's latest Covid-19 wave receded, a senior minister said on Monday.
Under the new policy, people who have received a full dose of vaccine against Covid-19 would no longer need to show a negative antigen or PCR test results before travel, Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said.
"In the context of transitioning to normal activities, today the government will implement various policies.

Flight from overseas to Jakarta no need going to quarantine is it ?

[marcus]

Yes .

The news says : "...eased restrictions in many areas in Java and Bali and waived quarantine for all fully vaccinated foreign arrivals entering the country..."

Although it does not specifically mention Jakarta , Jakarta is the Indonesian capital city and is located in Java .

As Bali already didn't require quarantine (some 2 weeks) before , it is impossible that this new of 22nd of March's "eased restrictions" does not include Jakarta .
