Hello friends! Welcome to one of my reports.
As usual, sorry for my bad English and bad quality of the pictures.
After flying to Makassar with Batik Air and having good 4 days in Makassar, it was time for me to return to my hometown. Cheapest fare for this journey was offered by Sriwijaya Air, and I quickly grabbed it before the price rises.
My father had flown to Jakarta earlier because had to attend a wedding ceremony of one of our relatives. Just like my flight to Makassar, this time I boarded the plane alone.
From our hotel, I left for the airport with the motorcycle taxi ordered through "Gojek" apps. The journey took about 45 minutes.


The airport terminal with its unique exterior.




Flight schedule. My flight was SJ 599 to Jakarta.

Check-in counters.




My boarding pass, printed on a simple paper like this. LCC typical.

Then I proceeded to the departure area after usual security check.
Look at the unique ceiling pattern.



No more international departures for that day, so the immigration counters were empty.

Waiting lounge, shared by all gates.

What I expected came true. My flight was delayed for more than 1 hour. I had known that almost all of Sriwijaya's evening flights never departed on time.
Scheduled to depart at 5.45 p.m, we were actually called for boarding at 6.45 p.m.




The plane for our flight, Boeing 737-800, with reg code "PK-CMJ" and nosename "Kesayangan" (meaning: "beloved). The latest Sriwijaya's livery was painted on it, containing "SJ" letters and the web address.

Entering the cabin.



After the boarding process completed, cabin crews started the safety procedure as usual.
The plane began to fly at 7.25 p.m (UTC+8) without queues.


Cabin lamps were turned on again. I checked anything in the seat pocket as usual.





Cabin crews gave all passengers snack bags containing bread and mineral water. Actually I had expected to get meal set because the scheduled flight duration was 2 hours.

As no IFEs available, my entertainment source during the flight was my cellphone with its musics and videos.
It was very dark outside the window until the plane started to descend and lights of Jakarta could be seen.


The plane landed safely in Jakarta at 8.15 p.m. (UTC+7).



Time to leave the plane. Unlike the departure, this time the aerobridge was provided for us.




Finally leaving the airport for my lovely home by express bus.
