DENPASAR - Australian airline Virgin Airlines cancelled flights on Saturday to Bali from a number of cities in that country on fear of problems cause by volcanic ashes spewed by Mount Raung in East Java. On Thursday night, another Australian airline, Jetstar, already cancelled six scheduled flights to Bali for the same reason, but on Friday it resumed normal flight to Bali. The 3.332 meters volcano in the district of Bondowoso, has shown activities lately with explosions sending black volcanic ashes soaring to the air over wide area including part of Bali. Trikora Harjo, General Manager of state-owned airport operator PT Angkasa Pura I Bandara I
Gusti Ngurah Rai, Bali, said, Virgin Airlines cancelled flights from a number of cities in Australia on Saturday. âThe airline cancelled seven flights to Bali from Melbourne, Sydney, Perth and Cairns and from Singapore, today,â Trikora said. He said there has been no domestic flight cancelled to Bali, but most aircraft made a detour more to the north or more to the south at a height of around 22,400 feet from the sea level to be away from the volcanic ashes.
âWe are told by Garuda Indonesia, they could evade the ashes by making a detour to the north or south flying high at 22,400 feet,â he said. Resumed
On Friday, Jetstar has resumed its services to Bali after having cancelled six flights to the island after receiving information about a volcanic eruption in East Java, Indonesia. âThey canceled flights to Bali due to safety reasons since according to their satellite data, a volcano had erupted, and its ash was blowing towards Australia,â Yusfandri Gona, the head of the Region IV Airport Authorities for Bali and
Nusa Tenggara, stated at I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport. Two flights were turned back three hours into their journey. However, on Friday morning until noon, the six flights from Sydney, Melbourne, Cairns, Perth, and Singapore are scheduled to arrive in Bali, he added. Jetstar was the only Australian airline that had canceled its flights to Bali on Thursday evening. Other Australian airlinesâ flights to and from Bali were not affected. Yusfandri said the eruption of Mt Raung in East Java has not affected domestic and international flights to and from Bali. Australian media ABC reported on Friday that after assessing the
flying conditions with the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC), Jetstar had decided to resume its services. âWe regret the impact that these cancellations have had on our passengers, particularly during the busy school holiday period, but we will always prioritize safety before schedule,â Jetstar stated.

âInside Outâ celebrates edge over âMagic Mike,â âTerminatorâ LOS ANGELES â Even with the flashy competition of Terminators and male strippers, the little feelings inside a young girlâs head proved to be more of a draw for moviegoers going into the holiday weekend. Disney and Pixarâs âInside Outâ earned a chart-topping $7.7 million on Thursday, according to Rentrak estimates. The animated family film has grossed $216.1 million to date and could become the first film since âArgoâ to climb to
No. 1 during its third weekend in release. âInside Outâ had been trailing the gargantuan grosses of âJurassic Worldâ for two weeks, but might have the edge finally. Universalâs record-busting dino film brought in $6.9 million Thursday, bringing its domestic total to $527.2 million. New openers âTerminator Genisysâ and âMagic Mike XXLâ held the third and fourth spots, respectively with $6.5 million
and $5.7 million. But, this narrow advantage doesnât mean much for âTerminatorâsâ bottom line, which looks destined for disappointment. The Skydance-Paramount movie was produced for an estimated $155 million. The âMagic Mikeâ sequel, meanwhile, only cost around $15 million. With daily grosses this close, the long holiday weekend is still anyoneâs game. While no film will be reaching the $80
million-plus heights of 2013âs âDespicable Me 2,â 2004âs âSpider-Man 2â or 2011âs âTransformers: Dark of the Moon,â this weekend is solid improvement over last yearâs disastrous Fourth of July weekend. The 2014 Independence Day box office was the weakest in decades thanks in part to lackluster options, like âTammy,â and âEarth to Echo,â bad weather and the competition of the World Cup. (ap)
