Garuda Arrives at Heathrow

摘要

Terminal 3 was awash with colour and the strains of traditional Indonesian music to celebrate the arrival of Garuda Indonesia's inaugural Heathrow service on March 31. The carrier has switched its London operation from Gatwick and increased frequency to five times per week. The outbound flight currently routes via Singapore because the Boeing 777-300ER's maximum take-off weight exceeds the strength of the runways at Jakarta's Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. The service from London is non-stop. Garuda's flights to and from Gatwick had routed via Amsterdam.
