“We’ve seen a continued surge in demand since the introduction of our daily service over a year ago, due to our convenient flight timings and network that allows passengers to make easy connections to other regional cities from Jakarta,” said Bambang Sunan, General Manager for Thailand, Myanmar, Laos & Cambodia, Garuda Indonesia. “Passenger travel to Jakarta continues to grow and with the additional flight, we will have the ability to better meet our customers’ needs.”

To celebrate the introduction of this additional service, Garuda Indonesia is offering promotional fares to Bali, Jakarta, Jogjakarta and Surabaya that range from THB8,000 to THB9,500, valid for travel between 17 June – 30 September. Terms and conditions apply.
