Flew with Garuda from SIN and we spent most of the day sat at Jakarta airport waiting to go to Bali, and not much difference for the return. Ended up on an old B747-400, last leter of reg H, jammed pack going on to Ausse, all the flights that day seemed to be tranfered to this one aircraft, late in the evening. Couldn't get a direct flight for that day. Sat in the centre section, lh aisle just infront of the bulkhead for the door 2 galley area, on rotation, a cold shower poured from overhead down my back and continued well into the climb, the lights and air vents above our heads failed to operate, wonderd what else had been passed over.
By the way there are other choices like Valuair (A320), maybe Lion Air (B737-900ELR) and watch out for SQ surcharges.
