Garuda Indonesia is offering 170,845 free domestic add-on flight seats to international passengers who purchase an eligible round-trip international ticket to Jakarta or Bali, as part of the airline’s “Discover More Indonesia” campaign, Travel Weekly Australia reported on August 24.
Under the Free Domestic Flight programme, passengers holding international return tickets can claim a free domestic return seat using the promo code INDO, with the offer valid for travel until November 30, 2026. The initiative links Garuda’s international and domestic networks, allowing passengers arriving from overseas to continue onward to destinations across the Indonesian archipelago beyond the main gateways of Jakarta and Denpasar. The airline said the programme would also benefit the Indonesian diaspora and migrant workers travelling home.
“We aim to provide a stronger incentive for international travellers not only to visit but also to stay longer, explore more destinations, and discover unique experiences across various regions of Indonesia,” said Garuda Indonesia marketing group head Prina Eka Putri.
Agny Gallus Pratama, Garuda Indonesia’s Southeast Asia branch manager and head of the Free Domestic Flight project management office, said the programme was designed to spread the economic benefits of tourism beyond Indonesia’s primary entry points. “When travellers stay longer and visit more destinations, economic activity also expands, ranging from hotels, local transportation and restaurants to culinary MSMEs and various tourism activities in the region,” Pratama said.
Bookings, eligible flights, travel periods and route options are available through Garuda Indonesia’s website.
