Flights return to normal after Anak Krakatau ash disruption

All eight airports affected by volcanic ash have reopened. Monitoring continues, and travelers should still confirm their flight directly with the airline.

What happened

What happened

Indonesia’s Ministry of Transportation confirmed that all eight airports temporarily affected by ash from Anak Krakatau had resumed operations. Flights were operating normally on 9 September after reopening the previous day.

Monitoring continues because the volcano remained at Level III (Siaga). Airspace conditions can therefore change quickly, although the official update reported no ash affecting flight operations at that time.

Practical impact

What this means for travelers

No new entry requirement was announced. If your itinerary changed during the closures, confirm your flight status directly with the airline before traveling to the airport.

For imminent travel through Jakarta, Lampung, Bandung or the other affected airports, rely on notices from your airline, the airport and Indonesian authorities.
