JAL reduces Flights to Indonesia

JAL has decided to reduce flight frequency and change routings on its Japan-Indonesia flights from 30 October 2005, following a significant decrease in passenger demand from Japan resulting from the terrorist bombing on Bali Island on 1 October. The airline said that the changes are temporary and start on 30 October and be in effect until 22 December 2005.

JAL currently provides three daily direct services between Japan and Indonesia: Tokyo (Narita) – Denpasa (Bali); Osaka (Kansai) – Denpasar and Tokyo (Narita) - Jakarta.

JAL will continue to serve Denpasar and Jakarta from Tokyo on a daily basis by consolidating the flights to a Narita-Jakarta-Denpasar-Narita routing in place of separate, direct flights. At the same time, JAL will reduce its Osaka-Denpasar service from seven to three flights per week.
