No idea if the 8am has left yet. My Father was fortunate enough to get on another Garuda flight that left around 1pm. His original one was still showing 00000 on the departure board when he boarded.
He txt'd and said that there were a lot of unhappy campers on the flight he got onto as that was meant to leave 2am (?) and was very late too. Apparently it was an extra flight that had been scheduled. I gather only 7 people were able to get onto his flight, the others were left behind. He was downgraded to economy from executive and had to get his bags and recheck in, clearing customs etc again, putting his duty free in his check in baggage as it couldn't go back through.
Anyway, he is there now and grateful for it. I'm guessing there will have been other forumites on his flight so we'll hear all about it soon enough!!!
