Garuda Indonesia heads back to Europe after six-year break, but condemned to price leadership

Garuda Indonesia made its much-anticipated return to European skies yesterday for the first time in six years, operating daily Jakarta-Amsterdam service via Dubai. B777-300ER equipment will replace A330s on the route next year and Garuda plans to serve other points in Europe, namely Frankfurt, London, Paris and Rome, now that an EU ban on the carrier has been lifted.
