Fancy a Bali beachside break? Soon you’ll have even more options to get there after Garuda Indonesia announced it would boost capacity from Sydney and Melbourne to Denpasar (Bali) and Jakarta.
Commencing 1 April 2023, Garuda Indonesia will operate three weekly flights between Sydney and Denpasar (GA714/715) departing Thursday, Friday and Sunday. An extra Saturday flight will start on 27 June.
Flights will depart Sydney at 10.05am and arrive at 2:40pm.
Jakarta-bound Sydney flights (GA712/713) will operate on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 1 April, with an extra Monday flight to kick off on 3 July.
Services will leave Sydney at 11.45am and touch down in the Indonesian capital at 4.30pm.
Meanwhile, Melbourne-Bali services (GA718/719) will run every Friday and Saturday from 1 April 2023, with an additional Monday flight commencing 3 July.
Flights between Melbourne and Jakarta (GA716/717) will operate on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, with a Wednesday flight added from 5 July.
Both Melbourne services will depart Tullamarine at 8am and touch down at 12.05pm and 12.20pm in Denpasar and Jakarta respectively.
Garuda will utilise its A330-300 for all services except Sydney-Jakarta, which will use a mix of the Airbus plane and the airline’s B777-300.
Indonesia’s flag carrier said the new schedule would provide more convenience and flexibility for Australian travellers as well as meet the growing demand for travel to Indonesia.
“Garuda Indonesia is committed to providing its customers with the highest level of comfort and convenience and is constantly working to improve its services,” the carrier said when announcing the new schedule.
“The new flight schedule is just one of the many initiatives the airline has taken to enhance the travel experience for its customers.”
