Denpasar International Airport in southern Bali, Indonesia, has been closed once more following the eruption of Mount Ruang, located just 120km (75 miles) away in East Java.
Indonesian authorities closed the airport along with three others - Praya Lombok International as well as Banyuwangi and Jember in East Java - on Friday last week following concerns about volcanic ejecta - drifting ash in particular. They were briefly reopened on Saturday only to be closed once more on Saturday evening following fresh eruptions.
Among the carriers affected include Garuda Indonesia (GA, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta), Qantas (QF, Sydney Kingsford Smith), Jetstar Airways (JQ, Melbourne Tullamarine), Indonesia AirAsia (QZ, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta), and Virgin Australia (VA, Brisbane International).
