I'll look forward to hearing your impressions of it Les. Until now I have been a dyed-in-the-wool advocate of Garuda. Flown 4 or 5 times with them to Bali...always in Exec Class. Have noticed a steady fall off in the quality of ride over the years...shabby cabins, food not so impressive, average inflight entertainment and seats that have seen better days. Now, it seems Garuda has made the decision to abandon Adelaide, Brisbane and NZ as well as reduce its flight options from Oz in general. That's disappointing and has the potential to backfire of airline management if the market it currently holds defects to Jetstar, SQ or other options. I certainly no longer feel any level of loyalty to Garuda...they've left me high and dry in Adelaide and should they ever reinstate a direct link here it will be too little too late from my perspective. Enjoy your new career challenge there in Bali and I wish you well. Cheers - kevin
