cone of Mount Rinjani in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara.
Due to the volcanic ash cloud arising from Mount Rinjani in Lombok,

information from the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre," it noted.
"We plan to provide a further update this afternoon at the earliest
regarding the rest of Tuesday`s flights that are not on the cancelled

The airline affirmed that it would resume flights once the
conditions improved and will update customers if poor flying conditions
lead to further cancellations.
