[AIRwin]

I noticed that QF is operating (and selling) the following flights between SIN and CGK on the following dates:
QF 82 on 10 August
QF 81 on 17 August

Anyone knows why?

Maybe CGK is the new ADL?

Perhaps a trial SYD-SIN via CGK! :shock:

Its probably a group booking.

QF41/42 used to do the SYD/CGK/SIN run, don't know when it ceased.

Guessing end of Ramadam holidays?

Received an email from QF flogging this from the other directions:

I did not realise you celebrated Lebaran?

I have no idea - I don't recall coming across the term before and still have no specific idea of what it means.

Same same.

Interesting they would send me an email for airfares from CGK. I am subscribed to SIN airfares unless Qantas considers this the same.

Indonesia major holidays at the end of Ramadan, many take one or two weeks holiday. QF are having specific diversions of QF81 and QF82 to CGK, to provide an extra CGK-SYD services around the beginning of the holiday and SYD-CGK service at the end. Probably also reflective of low loads on Saturdays to/from SIN.

'google/bing' is a wealth of information
