The Garuda airport in Jakarta is REALLY nice!
I know Bill, I've been in it but it's still a pain in the patootie. Though flying on Lion wouldn't have been a first choice ordinarily, 1.5 hours travel time to Jakarta then hanging out at airport for many hours followed by a 4+ hour red eye flight vs 4 hours on Silk Air to Manado followed by comfortable afternoon and night at Novatel Manado then 1.5 hour morning flight to Sorong much preferred. Now my hope is that Lion has pulled up their socks in light of recent tragedy and that weather conditions will be good for flying. No telling at this time of year. Certainly wouldn't want to be in the air tonight!! Very stormy out there, exciting to watch from safety.
