Currently in Jakarta and there are a few billboards up announcing the upcoming A330 service to Amsterdam. I had read that the CEO of Garuda wants to get the airline up to a Skytrax 5 star rating and the A330 will have a flat-bed in business class, but I think they still have a way to go to fix their safety reputation. Singapore Airlines flights to here are packed to the rafters, and when there is no seat availability even the locals recommend that you try one of the discount carriers such as Jetstar or Tiger rather than fly on Garuda.
