Garuda Indonesia launch travel pass to allow island hopping

Following the recent announcement that they are launching the first non-stop service from the UK to Jakarta from their new base at London Heathrow, Garuda Indonesia have made travel beyond the capital that much simpler with the ‘Wonderful Indonesia Travel Pass’.

The pass allows travellers the chance to explore Indonesia at their own leisure with the itinerary of their choice. It will aid in promoting Indonesia’s key tourist destinations beyond stalwart Bali and ensure travelling around the country is simpler and more affordable than
ever.

Travellers have the opportunity to explore the tropical beaches, magical underwater landscapes, magnificent World Heritage sites and the multicultural cities that form Indonesia’s rich tapestry with a flexible flight ticket that allows travel between three and five destinations.

There are six price levels, for example just £25 for 1-200 miles, £62 for 450-800 miles and £150 for 1400-2000 miles, representing overall savings of up to 30% on standard airfares.* Business class fares for the passes are also available, starting from £75 for up to 200 miles up to £469 for 1400-2000 miles.

The pass can also be purchased tailored to one of four different categories - Adventure, Underwater, Heritage and Explore.

The Adventure pass offers special fares to three to five destinations that showcase the most adventurous places in Indonesia. Destinations include: Denpasar, Lombok, Labuan Bajo, Gunung Sitoli, Ternate, Surabaya, Banyuwangi, Sumbawa, Medan, Padang, Sorong, and Bandung.

The Underwater Pass offers travellers the chance to explore the top diving and snorkelling opportunities in Indonesia. Destinations include: Denpasar, Lombok, Semarang, Labuan Bajo, Manado, Sorong, Berau, Ambon, Ternate, Bau-bau, Saumlaki, and Sabang.

The Heritage Pass allows travellers to explore the cultural elements of Indonesia with temple visits and historical sites. Destinations include: Jogjakarta, Solo, Semarang, Surabaya, Banyuwangi, Bandung, Denpasar, Tambolaka, Padang, Gunung Sitoli and Makassar.

The Explore Pass gives travellers the freedom to choose from different destinations from each of the passes, creating a tailor-made, customised travel pass.

The Wonderful Indonesia Travel Pass is available from Garuda Indonesia Sales Offices and via selected travel agents and must be purchased outside Indonesia in combination with a Garuda Indonesia international return ticket.
