I, too, have been advised that Garuda has no intention of reinstating flights out of adelaide.A big shame really because it now forces us to overnight in melbourne plus the domestic fares. For not a lot more, I can go direct out of adelaide with Singapore airlines, have a couple of nights stopover in Singapore, whip down to Bali and then get delivered back to my door in Adelaide. Having visited Bali several times, this option really adds quite another dimension to my the trip. So, this could be adios Garuda and hello Singapore airlines. A shame in some ways because we have always really enjoyed the Gardua experience. But rather than pay a bunch more for nothing more than a Melbourne stopover (and feel resentful abot the added expense) I'd rather fork up a bit extra and get a dash of Singa as well! Judging by the increasing frequency of ads in the paper for this option, it would appear that Singa Air might be on to something here. Hellooo...Garuda, something going on here!! Cheers - kevin
