JAL Resumes Flights To Indonesia During New Year Season

by Ruth on November 28th, 2005

In a previous post, I’ve reported that JAL reduced flights to Bali and Jakarta, as people hesitate going to Indonesia for fear of terrorist activities. But it seems that JAL is expecting a change of minds… during the holiday season, at least.

Over the New Year vacation period, JAL will resume full operation of the three daily direct services it normally offers passengers between Japan and Indonesia. From December 22, 2005 to January 9, 2006, passengers will be able to travel daily from Tokyo (Narita) to either Denpasar (Bali) or Jakarta direct.

Daily service between Osaka (Kansai) and Denpasar will once again be available from December 27 to January 4. However, all the flights will be affected by route and frequency changes after these periods.

I just hope the spirit of the holiday season lords it over, and allow Japanese tourists to escape winter for a while and enjoy the holiday break in the sun, without fear of terrorist activities marring their holiday. May the only blasts be from firecrackers and champagne corks!

Please, Santa?
