Garuda spending big bucks to get Bali back on track

Garuda Indonesia are spending bug bucks to update their fleet of aircraft. The Jakarta-Bali-Perth route is crucial to Bali’s economy and Garuda have responded by ordering new planes from Boeing.

Garuda is one of the more affordable carriers and I have flown with them several times. If there is a choice in Indonesia, its always better to fly Garuda than a domestic airline, because of the safety standards, pilots, maintenance.

Garuda is ordering 18 Boeing 737 New Generation series followed by 10 Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners. This is a great news following the collapse of Air Paradise.
