GARUDA INDONESIA 737 Economy Class 🇮🇩【Trip Report: Bali to Jakarta】Hot, Hot, HOT 🔥

he's not wrong, local youtuber once review garuda get sued, well not sue to be honest, get reported to police as garuda employee claim the honest youtuber review is "HurT tHeiR fEeLiNg" and since garuda is national owned, police actually demand the youtuber to come station, then they forced the youtuber to erase the clip and hes gone now, nowhere to be seen.

[@abrarravidhia5886]

I am with you. As an Indonesian and in my opinion, Garuda has been downgraded compared to several years before, and I think that is part of their cost optimization. Meanwhile, I also believe Garuda has plans to enhance their customers experiences. The one step forward is that they already received 2/5 737-800NG ex-Oman Air, which I guess had better seats and IFE than existing GA Narowbody fleets.

[@tfft]

Thanks for watching 🩴

[@l4zr_boy]

Their 3rd out of 5 737s is going to be an ex-China Airlines unit with no IFE sadly. However on the ex-Oman Air planes had a BYOD system, so expect to also see those in PK-GUD. As for where they source the final 2 who knows, They could snag up 1 more ex-Oman Air unit.

[@andraefrancesco6748]

yeah with indonesian duopoly garuda & lion , they seem dont care about their customer anymore

[@ahmadfaridiam6652]

Indonesians tend to dislike bad reviews about their country and/or anything that represents it. I can imagine the amount of backlash this video will have as soon as an Indonesian “influencer” gets the hold of it. Good review by the way. One of the best reviewers out there.

[@norhishamothman4152]

Well said. Even the wrong name for a pancake style street food I commented about having similar style of preparation in Thailand, my home country and THAT country was responded in a very harsh manner but I could not be bothered as its typical from their mentality. Great report and yes, do keep up the reviews as we can choose what carriers that are more better.

[@ahmadfaridiam6652]

Sadly. When it comes to inter Indonesia flights, you don’t have much options though. Garuda is still the best, compared to the more dominant Lion Air group. AirAsia is trying to catch up, but they are being bullied out of the country. There are new airlines in the last few years, but there are still small compared Lion Air and Garuda.

[@l4zr_boy]

@@ahmadfaridiam6652 Because of the small to none options you have for such a large country and due to high airport fees, domestic airfares here are well known to be very expensive compared to our neighbors or even for similar international flights.

[@idoobedumbedoo]

The only garuda plane I can tolerate is the super diamond configuration, and they only have 4 of them. My last flight with garuda was also dps-cgk and got lucky with the A330 super diamond configuration. The legroom is no joke. Also, their meals in 2019 was so bad I never bothered to touch them. It is better nowadays.

[@tfft]

I certainly would have prefered a super diamond seat as well lol. Thanks for watching 🩴

[@dennisrettke]

I totally feel your pain with the window seat assignment. I once had an aircraft change from an A330 to another A330. Of course, my seat assignment was reset and I was put in the middle section. Unfortunately at check in the agent was so clueless she was getting a single aisle aircraft assignment (my next flight) mixed up with this twin aisle plane. And yes, I NEED a window seat and not the windowless one!

[@tfft]

My check in agent really couldn’t comprehend that I “wanted” a seat further back in the plane just to get my window lol. Thanks for watching 🩴

[@kevanbroad5302]

I had a similar experience on a PAL domestic flight about 2 years ago. Boarded a hot plane (A320), pushed back and then they couldn’t start the engines. Went back to the gate and stayed onboard while they tried to fix it. Pushed back again and spent another hour sat there with no aircon. It was 32C outside but a lot hotter inside. It got to the stage where a couple of male passengers got up and approached the cockpit as a woman had fainted from the heat. Before things got totally out of hand they went back to the gate and offloaded us all. After another hour we all reboarded the same plane and took off.

6:16 as indonesian, it's pure comedy at that time

[@ekalbrkn]

Aside from other GA shenanigans, they're usually actually pretty on time except for DPS routes, which schedules are pretty f'ed up for any airline due to their runway congestion. DPS really one of the busiest single runway airport at the time and if you're even more unluckier you can be in takeoff queue in the taxiway for almost an hour or more. Traffic optimizations are really needed in DPS

[@stevene465]

Great review as always - Having just experienced that route ( originally an A330 then a 737 then an airlink A320 then back to the A330) on a very full flight , connecting with QR. The crew were all very friendly, the meal , I skipped but nowadays I get quite anxious with the immigration process and the military’s presence - maybe I’m over reacting anyway thanks

Now I avoid fly with Gatuda since I have dissapointed experinces both in bussines and economy class. Garuda change my flight from Bali to Jakarta with 3 hours ahead with only SMS notification. Unfortunately I’m already in the airport at that time. The F&B for business class is worse than F&B in economy class in another 5 stars flight. The food in the lounge even worst. I want my Garuda just like 6-7 years ago when everything is perfect. Now Garuda has the most expensive price ticket in the world which is not inline with the services!

Hopefully, they can find their way again. Thank you as always for the support 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@daniz8578]

Garuda is poorly managed and only being used as government's ATM machine. they manage to have a great net loss and still being accused of polishing their books. i agree their service is great before the "corruption scandal" but with budget cut and more eyes watching closely to them, they dont know how to do anything right and efficient if not poured with money. sorry english is not my first language

[@well-blazeredman6187]

I’ve always loved Garuda since , as a kid in the early 70s, I flew with my father from Jakarta. Halim to DPS in a DC-9. Boarding up the rear stairs then seated to find scented de humidifying fog pouring out of the air vents. Dad said not to worry unless it continues in the air. Ok! Unfortunately Garuda has been hit by low cost at the bottom and SIA at the top to cruel their business. Hopefully that will change. Another great review. Many thanks.

[@tfft]

To be fair, every other airline on earth has also been 'hit' by the same factors. It's not about what has hit them, but rather if they have management with the skill necessary to over come it. Thanks for watching 🩴

[@dimitriginting2398]

I can share the frustration you have with Garuda Indonesia being an Indonesian avgeek. I myself am really disappointed with how they really seem to mess everything up especially after they seem to be able to improve quite significantly in the 2010s. I now always try to avoid Garuda if possible especially om internstional flights. And I really love the research that you did on Garuda. Explains everything and gives a perfect insight to how the airline is doing👍

[@daviano_R.T.]

As Indonesian, I'm also think that Garuda Indonesia flight experience were at Ok at best, is kinda weird knowing their good track record in the past plummeted rapidly, even most Indonesian people now Practically prefer Singapore Airlines if the price is similar. As for ARJ/Comac aircraft purchase, I don't know the complete details, but as for now, only Transnusa and not garuda that order ARJ/Comac.

Amazing I booked my flight to Bali from Jakarta yesterday I was wondering if spending the extra money for garuda was worth it? I paid £45 for my Trans Nusa flight while garuda wanted £90. After watching your video I'm confident I made the right choice. You alter mention about the other competition on the route Air Asia, super air jet, citi link and trans Nusa, all fly Bali to Jakarta.

[@IndoDiaspora]

Good luck flying Trans Nusa. Hope you have a good flight. Even though their domestic flights are mediocre, I will only fly Garuda within Indonesia. I don't trust any of the other Indonesian airlines. I have read too many horror stories about the other Indonesian airlines. Many Indonesians think Trans Nusa is Indonesia's worst airline.

I actually have plans to fly Trans Nusa early next year but am waiting to book until the last minute as I'm trying to fly on one of their ARJ21s. Thanks for watching 🩴

[@hardly.rivai_YT]

I have a flight booked with Garuda Indonesia on the Airbus A330-300 on December flying from Sydney to Jakarta and back in January. Suffice to say, despite winning World's Best Cabin Crew, Garuda Indonesia has a lot to improve, not just on the cabin product, but its fleet too. A decade ago, this airline used to be 5-star and, at one point, is the world's best regional airline and world's best economy class. Though Garuda is still the best airline (in Indonesia), they're not world class anymore. Makes me wonder if they'll ever catch up with the competition in the short and medium-term. 😕

[@kevinfranger]

mhm 55 minutes stationary with AC off? 🤔🤔 I highly doubt that. probably the APU was malfunctioning and they had to use external AC unit, which is never as good as the APU, especially in the hot temperatures in Bali, but it is supplied by Gapura (the airport authority), so the airlines does not have any influence in the quality of the external AC unit. This problem is fairly common all around the world, and I have experienced it in many countries outside of Indonesia. Being a A330 pilot for Garuda myself, all things considered, I would still like to apologize for your inconvenience and I surely hope you will catch a better flight with us in the future. I personally think you had just bad luck on this particular flight with the APU malfunctioning and you would have a completely different experience on an other flight with us.

[@tfft]

The delay was after pushback and prior to taxi. I assure you, there was zero airflow.

[@kevinfranger]

but surely it did not take 55 minutes after pushback for you to taxi right? Bali has only one taxiway, they would have completely halted all airport traffic and ATC would surely not allow that. As for why there was no airflow for probably around 5 minutes after pushback, it's because in case of a malfunction of the APU we have to do a crossbleed start. It's where the starting engine receives bleed air from the already started engine (one engine is started at the gate). For this procedure the AC unfortunately has to be off, otherwise the engine won't start. That is the procedure prescribed by the manufacturer. Hope those explanations could somehow make you understand the situation more. There is always more than what meets the eye. I really hope you give our product another try in the future, I especially would recommend AMS-CGK flight in business class on the 777, or maybe on any of our A330 NEO flight. I would love to be your pilot if you ever get the chance to fly on our A330.

[@tfft]

Not sure why you think I would need to lie- I don't mislead or create drama like many channels. I take 80-100 flights per year- I know it's quite normal for the airflow to stop for some minutes- this was not 'some minutes'. All of my timings, including the 55 minutes of inactivity, are backed up with time stamped videos and photos. I'll leave it at that.

[@kevinfranger]

Alright then, that is quite unfortunate then, in my 10 years of flying the most I have waited after pushback is 5 minutes before ATC asked what is up and giving the instructions to go back to the gate to let other traffic pass, especially in bali, where, as I said, there is only one taxiway, which is a design flaw. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you and I hope you will not have such an experience again in the future 😊😊

[@timothyanurantha1803]

They did jakarta- bangkok- mumbai and denpasar- mumbai but it got temporarily closed cause of covid, probably will be opened soon

[@tfft]

The same could be asked about Air India in the other direction. The answer, in my experience living in the region is: Indonesia (aside from Bali) has a relatively narrow focus of international relations and Garuda's network reflects that. Another example is Vietnam & Indonesia- both members of ASEAN and less than 3 hours flight from each other and even they didn't have more than 1 direct flight per day until a few years ago. The other reason has a lot to do with well off Indonesians simply prefering to fly SQ, which has a massive feeder presence in Jakarta.

Garuda has a complicated problems until now and they still manage to solved it. NOT WORTHY with their expensive fares with their service. maybe later if they already solved and help by the government and making profit (which is i don’t know when) then GARUDA might be bounce back to the better way of service.

I'll take Garuda over any Us, Aus or EU airline ANY day. You are making a big deal out of nothing.

[@tfft]

Nope, I’m making a report about my trip.

Hot and uncomfortable plane is a huge deal, could be dangerous for some people with health issues

I would never fly with this hot mess of a carrier or any low cost carrier from this region. They make flying Southwest like a luxury.

To be fair, South and SE Asia has some of the best LCCs on earth...

I’m sorry for the hot and claustrophobic moment, must’ve been awful. I REALLY hope someone who can make a change from Garuda would see this, because unfortunately the airlines is still our best option here in Indonesia so they need to buck up LOL 😂 Can’t believe it’s already been a decade since their successful Quantum Leap program. That’s the thing with government-owned enterprises; if you’re lucky you’ll get someone who cares enough to at least leave a good legacy, otherwise you’ll end up with a lecher and his Harley-Davidson 🫣 Again, unfortunately for us, it’s still a better option than taking the most successful low-cost airline in the country owned by money-grubbing thieves who don’t give a damn about passengers’ lives and whose idea of safety insurance is an “Invocation Card” that contains prayers in six religions in your seat-back pocket 😭 BTW the letter “C” in Bahasa Indonesia is always pronounced as “ch” so “Canggu” should be read as “chang-goo” 🙏

Yes, I corrected my pronunciation for my upcoming La Reserve 1785 Canguu Beach video, but appreciate the way you mentioned it 🙏🏻 Hopefully GA gets their act together eventually… until then, lots of foreign options for international flying at least. Thanks for watching 🩴

@@tfft unfortunately, getting your act together is extremely difficult in a country like ours. The president and CEO recently shared that the People's Representative Council had asked for BUSINESS CLASS seats for their pilgrimage to Mecca despite the airlines’ financial trouble being public knowledge😑 I’d imagine there would be a public outcry in any other sensible country, but sadly there are just too many other things on our people’s minds to distract them. Of course, we’re talking about the very same people who voted for these crooks, so we really got no one else to blame but ourselves. 🔪
