To assist returning passengers, Garuda maintains full schedules to Bali

Garuda Indonesia confirmed today that it is maintaining full flight schedules to and from Bali following last night’s bomb blasts there.

In addition to operating all flights according to existing schedules to assist the thousands of Australians and New Zealanders affected during the school holiday season, the airline is keeping under review demand and aircraft availability as the situation develops.

Garuda Indonesia also announced that passengers may defer or cancel without penalty Australian and New Zealand flights that have been booked for departures up to and including October 16. For departures beyond that date, the situation will be reviewed over coming weeks. Passengers already in Bali may also, without penalty, rebook early return flights where seats are available.

 Passengers are advised to contact their travel agents for information about hotels, tours and other ground arrangements or to amend existing bookings.
