Garuda massively increases miles required for domestic redemptions

[Qantas747]

Garuda has just released a new domestic award redemption table - and the miles required for business redemptions on certain routes have now increased tenfold. Economy has had more modest increases, but still up to double on some routes.

As an example:

Jakarta - Bandar Lampung (Tanjung Karang) - Business was 7,700 now 83,000 (25-minute flight)
Jakarta - Semarang - Economy was 9,600 now 16,000, Business was 15,400 now 71,000
Jakarta - Denpasar - Economy was 17,900 now 29,000, Business was 32,000 now 159,000

The old table can be found here: https://www.garuda-indonesia.com/st...a/files/pdf/Tabel-Penukaran-Miles-Aug2025.pdf

The new table can be found here: Garuda Indonesia


Denpasar-Lombok is also offered, but that route doesn't seem to be served by either Garuda or Citilink.

Did Garuda give any notice of this?

Very poor if not. (And even with notice, those are huge increases.)
