Garuda launches Malaysia - Indonesia Promotion

Garuda Indonesia is encouraging travellers in Malaysia to plan and book their holidays now to take advantage of an Early Bird Promotion which offers flights to 12 Indonesian destinations at attractive prices.

Fares to Jakarta start from MYR140, and for travellers keen to explore beyond the bustle of the city, they can hop on to either Semarang, Solo, Yogyakarta, Palembang, Surabaya or Lampung for an additional MYR260. Travellers wishing to relax on the beaches of Bali, Banjarmasin or Pontianak can fly from Jakarta for MYR340 more. For another MYR760, customers can also visit Ujung Pandang or Balikpapan, known for locally mined gemstones. This promotion ends on 30 April 2010, and tickets are valid for travel from 1Jun - 31July 2010.

The fares can be purchased from IATA certified agents and the Garuda Indonesia ticketing office at Ground Floor, Menara Park, Block D, Megan Avenue II, No. 12 Jalan Yap Kwan Seng, 50450, Kuala Lumpur. Terms and conditions apply and fares quote above are subject to applicable taxes and fuel surcharges.

“It is easy to plan early for holidays with Garuda Indonesia as we offer great deals, in addition to the reliability of our flights. Our passengers are immersed in the local culture once onboard our aircraft as we offer a unique ‘Garuda Indonesia Experience’ service concept, which combines warm Indonesian hospitality with quality service that emphasizes on safety and comfort,” said Joseph Tendean, General Manager for Malaysia, Garuda Indonesia.

Garuda Indonesia was recently upgraded to a four-star rating by Skytrax, the global benchmark for airline service standards and the airline currently offers two flights daily from Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta.
