The new routes will begin gradual operation from Jan. 16, and will later be supported by 14 new Boeing 737-NG aircraft to be delivered in mid-2009.

No new routes to the EU, I guess. They're still on the blacklist

New int'l routes are the following:
DPS-ADL
DPS-HKG
SUB-HKG

SUB = Surabaya
HKG = Hongkong
DPS = Denpasar
ADL = Adelaide

Hopefully the European Union will withdraw Indonesia very soon to make it possible to land in Europe again (I don't think it will happen soon.. )

Garuda is already many years to return to the Netherlands. I spoke to someone at Bali who told me DPS - AMS would be the most realistic route because of tourism.
Garuda's last flight to Amsterdam was in 2004 (or 2005.. I am not sure)
Did Garuda serve to Denpasar or to Jakarta those years?

Did Garuda serve to Denpasar or to Jakarta those years?

Routing of GA975 was AMS-SIN-CGK.
