But you reminded me to check with the other top prospects as well.
One things for sure, *planning ahead* has little meaning in Indonesia. Best to have a triple backup.

Add in this year CV isn't going to be near over by Ramadan, I'd strongly advise against going this year.

To Whom It May Concern.
I booked 6 days at Shangri-La in January and "lucked out" at $92 a day plus tax.
My stay is May 12 to 18.
I emailed the hotel today to see if I could get a refund; or at least rebook at a later date due to the Cornavirus. I received confirmation today that they will allow either a refund or rebooking; which is good news and leaves me with options.
Thumbs up,
Traveler.

I knew a guy a couple of years ago who said he struggled on Tinder to find girls during Ramadan. But I think that was because he had just been in Jakarta a couple of months earlier for his very first trip and had already matched a lot of the girls so it just seemed it was slow. Last year I had no trouble finding girls on Tinder during Ramadan. But I actually prefer going to BATS because the girls did drop their price at Ramadan.
Although you can get cheaper prices during Ramadan because the girls are desperate, it's still not as fun as going any time when it's not Ramadan.

Thanks for the comprehensive report.
Time will tell, when the rent comes due and they have little to no money things will change. Eventually market forces will come to bear. It will just take longer.
Keeping my fingers crossed.
Like you, I refuse to pay anyone above 1. 5. I don't care who or how beautiful they are.
Last November, I was there for 10 days and even stayed at Mulia for 3 days. I only took I girl from CJ'S. Amy (a non-pro) for 1. 5. She's now working in the Netherlands.
Cheers, Traveler.

As you suggested, I already have 3 times the number of girls I could ever hope to see thru Tinder.
So Ramadan doesn't matter to me and the decreased traffic is actually a blessing.
A few nights at BATS or CJS will be a diversion if needed. Long live the Internet. LOL.
Cheers, Traveler.

Right now, the girls drastically outnumber the guys in those places. It seems the coronavirus has decreased the number of customers, but it hasn't done much to keep the girls away. Although the girls now outnumber the guys by a lot due to far less guys coming out due to this coronavirus, the girls who are hard core CJs and BATS girls are still sticking to their absurd price. I have found that the better looking girls will still go home alone with zero money rather than take less than 2 million. Of course, this is a small sample of girls because I have only tried talking two of them down in price and both wanted 2 and a half million at first then came down to 2 million, but no less than 2 million. I will not pay that much, so they went home alone. I then had to call a regular and have her meet me at my place for one million. Before calling that girl, I did offer them 1 and a half million in the bar and they refused. It seems to me stupid business sense to refuse 1 and a half million for short time and go home alone with zero. But "face" is all important for these girls. God forbid they take less than what other girls might possibly be getting. For them to refuse that tells me how little the other guys visiting that place care about money. If we all stuck together and refused to pay more than 1 and a half, they would drop their price to that. That is over 100 usd and very fair. Hell, it appears that many guys are still giving these girls 2 and a half or even 3 million rupiah. Insane if you ask me. 3 million is about 215 USD. 2 and a half million is around 180 USD. That's just too damn much for Indonesia. I know some guys say they are not in Jakarta long and they are desperate, so they will pay that price regardless to avoid missing a night of sex. I just can't bring myself to do that. Point of principle. Same point of principle the girls have sticking to their price I guess. I do find it sad that guys are willing to go that high seemingly on a regular basis since these girls are there every night.
So the answer to your question is NO. They are not dropping their price due to coronavirus.

I have tickets and a hotel reservation for May 12 - 18. I am praying Corona is under control by then. But I have my doubts.
There has been a lack of good trip reports the past few months, so I am wondering, has anyone seen a downward trend in pricing at places like CJ's & BAT'S?
Cheers, Traveler.
