Bali’s international airport reopened Saturday morning after being closed since late Thursday due to a volcanic eruption that left thousands of travelers stranded.
The airport reopened as of 10 a.m. local time, said J.A. Barata, a spokesman at Indonesia’s Transport Ministry. Banyuwangi and Jember airports on the nearby island of Java remain closed, he said. Jetstar Airways Pty. was resuming at least two flights Saturday between Perth and Bali, one in either direction, it said in a statement.
Mount Raung in East Java was still erupting with ash clouds reaching as high as 1,300 to 1,600 feet, Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, a spokesman at the National Disaster Mitigation Agency, said Saturday.
