I got an email from a friend who was on that flight.Instead of arriving at 9pm it didn't get in until 3.30am.
The plane was about to land at Denpasar but then took off again,passengers were told that the weather was too bad & that they closed the airport so the plane was sent to Surabaya which was about a 45 minute flight away.Immigration at Surabaya would not let passengers off the plane & said that they were not their responsible for them so people had to sit in the plane for over 2 hours before they took off again.
Pilots were changed at Surabaya since the 1st one was due for his change over,when the plane eventually landed at Denpasar,it was an extremely difficult landing.
Naturally passengers were nervous under the difficult conditions & applauded the pilot when the plane stopped.I'm sure glad I wasn't on that flight.
