Flights through Jakarta resumed early on 8 September 2026 after volcanic ash from Mount Anak Krakatau forced a two-day shutdown. Transportation Minister Dudy Purwagandhi said Soekarno-Hatta, Halim Perdanakusuma, Husein Sastranegara in Bandung, and two smaller Banten airports reopened just after midnight following safety checks. Travellers connecting to Sumba via Jakarta or Bali should reconfirm tickets, as ash had halted nearly 3,000 flights.
