Dozens of flights in Bali and Bali were abolished after volcanic eruption near the Indonesian popular tourist island, so tourists stuck and increased concern about the impact on the vital tourist industry.
Singapore Airlines, Jetstar Airways, Airasia X, Batik Air and Wings Air were among carriers who temporarily stopped services due to volcanic activities.
According to data from Bali International Airport, cited by Reuters has so far been canceled about 30 flights.
However, Denpasar Airport, the main gate to Bali Hotspot, remained open, and some carriers, including PT Garuda Indonesia, were still checked by passengers.
Reuters said that, according to the explanation given by the announcement of the Aviation Volcage Observator, the gray volcanic ash of the middle intensity was observed, which moved north.
Tourists remained stuck in Indonesia
According to CNN, more than a thousand tourists, especially those traveling to Bali and Komodo National Park, were influenced.
Mount Lewotobi Laki Laki last broke out in May, when the authorities also increased the level of alert to the most serious. The previous eruption in March forced the airlines to cancel and postpone flights in Bali, about 500 miles (800 km), CNN said.
In November, the volcano broke out several times and claimed the lives of nine people and injured dozens of others, forcing thousands of fleeing and canceling flights.
Disruption caused by eruption
The disruption began after Tuesday’s eruption of the Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano in the east of the Indonesian island of Flores.
In its statement, the Country Country Management agency said that the authorities had increased the warning of volcanoes to the highest level of four after the eruption sent the ash column over 10 kilometers (6 million), Reuters reported.
Seismic monitoring devices still detect tremors that indicate ongoing volcanic activity, said the agency for disaster to the agency Reuters.
