Jakarta to Sydney Flights on Garuda Daily

Last updated: December 14, 2010

Garuda increases the frequency of its flights between Jakarta and Sydney.

Earlier this year, Garuda Indonesia commenced direct flights between Jakarta and Sydney 3 days per week, a route previously only serviced by Qantas.

Garuda has now announced it will commence daily flights, effective 20 December 2010. (By contrast, Qantas currently operates 3-4 days per week.)

Garuda’s flight schedule is as follows:

Flight Number	Route	Departs	Arrives
GA712	Jakarta to Sydney	21:50	08:30*
GA713	Sydney to Jakarta	11:15*	14:35

*Local time in Sydney is currently four hours ahead of Jakarta. From March to September, the time difference becomes three hours.

While the schedule of GA712 is little different to Qantas’s QF42, GA713 arrives in Jakarta four hours earlier than QF41. This makes flying Garuda more suitable if you are transiting Jakarta and connecting to an Indonesian domestic flight to e.g. Surabaya, Medan, Makassar, Balikpapan. Garuda domestic flights also depart from the international Terminal 2, which means you don’t have to change terminals.

   Qantas is advertising a special deal of $490 + taxes for return flights between Jakarta and Sydney/Melbourne/Adelaide/Brisbane, valid until 15 February for departures between 1 February and 10 August 2012

   Nothing so interesting there, but I couldn’t help but notice this:

   Benefits of flying with Qantas…

   – Award winning cabin designs
   – Warm and friendly Australian service
   – Healthy meals
   – Frequent Flyer points

   My first thought was, “Well, they must be scraping the barrel if those are the unique benefits of flying Qantas”.

   My second – more disturbing – thought: Is Qantas suggesting other airlines are poisoning their customers?
