Here we are back…

We arrive at the airport after a short taxi ride; LOMBOK airport is in a sparsely populated area.
Arriving on the right we find the taxi parking area.
Luggage trolleys are available as soon as you arrive.

The entrance is nice and neat here…

Check-ins are quick and the GARUDA desks provide friendly staff and fast procedures.

Security checks are also quick due to the presence of few people.
Inside the airport there are various shops and places to eat and drink.

There is also a place where someone plays and sings ..

From the windows, the runway and planes connected to the fingers and departing planes such as:

Enter text While waiting to board my plane from the windows of the finger, unfortunately wet from the rain, I caught a glimpse:
DHC-6-400 TWIN OTTER PK-TVP Travira Air S/N988…

Cessna 208 Caravan PK-TVX Travira Air S/N 20800421

Through the glass windows we can also see our plane.

They call our flight, and we start boarding a little slowly due to the presence of a large group that has to board before us, all dressed in yellow visible in the distance…

The GARUDA service is always good and as soon as you get on the plane there are two containers where you can get some earphones and candy.

The push-back is at 14:54 and after a while of waiting to let a BATIK plane land and after time to position ourselves at the head of the runway for take-off, here we go at 15:10.
I remember that there is only one runway at LOMBK.
We immediately make a left turn and immediately encounter slight turbulence, and climb to cruising altitude without any other problems.
The service is fast and as always we are served first, having chosen the type of meal when we buy our tickets.
They also bring us mixed savouries, coconut biscuits and the cutlery is wooden.
The time to land arrives and at 15:47 local time we arrive.
We land almost perfectly and brake to take the first siding to the fingers waiting for us to get off.


Here is our aircraft …

I arrive at our baggage claim and am confronted with this scene:

We collect our luggage and make our way to the exit.

Conclusion

The Lombok airport though small we with one runway always proves to be a beautiful airport...cosy and full of pleasant atractions like the singer...
Garuda never fails in both its staff always dressed in traditional dress and its service always attentive to its passengers.
At the Jakarta airport I am surprised by the care dedicated to luggage, something unthinkable in Italy and above all in Venice.

Asia always surprises.
