Given the terminal change, I'm pretty sure I have to go through immigration, take a shuttle to the new terminal, check in, go through security check, etc. While AI Express doesn't have a great on-time reputation, this particular flight seems to always leave on time since the inbound flight arrives before 6am, giving it ample buffer.

If I'm not mistaken I've done similar transfers before in a similar amount of time. But I thought I'd check to see what the collective wisdom is. Is 1:45 too tight to make it?
As paperwastage correctly states Terminals 1, 2 and 3 are physically connected.

In fact Terminal 1 sits in the middle of 2 and 3 so you can easily walk between 3 and 1 without any issues.

The only question is whether the Garuda flight arrives on time or not. Assuming it does, then 1hr 45 mins is plenty of time
