Hi, can understand your frustration with your mums arrival in Bali, given all the comments about Garuda over the past couple of times, I wonder if people actually think that Gardua have these delays deliberately???
I'm sure they would'nt being doing this to annoy everyone, but thats how comments are coming accross on the forum. I'm sure staff at arrivals hate 7 planes arriving within 10 minutes of each other also.
It was mentioned in another post that once a delay has happened it does have a follow on effect with other flights for the next week or so. But I can see exactly where you are coming from, I would hate to be hanging around the airport just waiting, waiting and also frustrating for your mum at not being able to contact you.
I would rather my flight was delayed, than not to arrive at all.
I would love my flight home to be full and have some extra time in Bali!
Trying to get back to Bali for a quick visit before the end of the year, don't like my chances though, getting flights, accom etc (also getting the time off work!!) We were there end of July/early August, I was amazed by how nice Bali looked, when we were there three years ago, Kartika st was mostly dug up (new drainage), I was very impressed!!!
Hope you had a good holiday with your mum.
