Executive Vice President Marketing and Sales of Garuda Indonesia Mr. Erik Meijer, said, "We are very pleased to be able to add London to our extensive global network. There are strong business, educational and cultural ties between Indonesia and The United Kingdom, and we believe this new service will further boost those activities amongst two countries, whilst offering easier access for travelers from UK to Indonesia, which now is one of the fastest economic growth centers in the world."

Following its entrance into the SkyTeam global airline alliance on March 2014, Garuda decided to make Amsterdam its hub for Europe and beyond. The airline started flying non-stop between Jakarta and Amsterdam on 30 May 2014.
