JAKARTA. Limited visibility due to smog forced Garuda Indonesia to cancel at least 12 flights on Sunday (15/9). The policy is in line with the airline's commitment to always prioritize safety and security.
Vice President Corporate Secretary of Garuda Indonesia, M Ikhsan Rosan, revealed that the decision was made considering the safety and security aspects.
To ensure readiness and safety, a number of Garuda Indonesia flights were also diverted and delayed. "These anticipations have also affected a number of flight rotations. For this reason, we urge passengers to periodically check their flight schedules," Ikhsan explained.
In connection with this, said Ikhsan, his party has also prepared a contingency plan for handling affected flights, including its passengers.
