Had the privilege of flying CGK-LHR in F. What an excellent experience. It's sad that they can't make this work.

Garuda's service is really good and their seat is reasonable. SQ seat is better, but it requires some work to change the seat to a flat bed, which is a bit inconvenient. On a GA plane, I simply adjust the seat whenever I feel like it.

Thanks. I recently flew with Garuda Indonesia and used their Bid Upgrade program. I earned business class points for my trip.

When upgrading by cash, will the passenger earn points in the equivalent of flying in business or in economy? How about earning points for other *A airlines?

A very thorough review. I enjoyed reading it. One thing, is this statement correct, "the well-padded seat is a generous 21cm wide between the sidewall and the armrest facing the aisle"? Should this be 21 inches instead?
