It was 20th Sept. 2005 I had to attend Bona ICT Center invitation for launching event. I was so damn busy in office and my baby daughter was sick because of alergic some kind of antibiotic. So I was going to chase 14:00 flight to Jakarta coz the event itself at 14:00 so I thought would be appropiate time. But I cannot get 14:00 flight then have to catch 16:00 flight but somehow CN235 the fleet I was suppose to take was never show up.
Announcement said that I had to go to Merpati counter and the officer said that the flight from Merpati is cancelled and changed to DERAYA. All passanger moved/changed ticket to DERAYA.
I wonder if they will give me some change because DERAYA cost cheaper about 20-30 thousands rupiahs. But they didnt do that....
so much for MERPATI SERVICE.... !
I didnt intend to fly with merpati but it was KALSTAR that I was interested with. But ATR-42 was overhauled that time so theres no flight that day.
So scare .... inside small plane with shaky shaky sit...

Hey... MERPATI has a new service
