Voice of Travelers to Surabaya

The best airline in Indonesia with professional crew

I arrived at the airport, checked-in at the counter and boarded the flight on time. I flew on a Business Class from Jakarta to Surabaya. As we boarded the flight, we were welcomed with helpful and very warm crew assisting passenger ever on their seat. After the plane took off one in-flight crew asked whether I would like to have dinner or wait for regular meal services. They had wide selections of food, and it was very delicious. The seat length was 2meteres and 23 inches width making it comfortable for the whole flight. Thank you so much, Garuda airline for the professional service you gave me.

Efficient AirAsia airline

We took this airline for the first time with my family, and they had great and friendly service. The aircraft was very clean. I was traveling from Singapore to Surabaya for a holiday vacation. Don't be late at the check-in otherwise; you will find crowded passenger ready to board. The flight was delayed 20 minutes, but the flight attendants were very friendly. I was seated at the row 42A, and the flight was very full. The leg room seating for the economy class was average. I loved the simple meal they gave us. The ticket budget was friendly and reasonable. You get what you pay for, and I will fly them again.
