VIVAnews - PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk is planning to cuts some of its flights to Europe, especially to Amsterdam, Netherlands, as of March 1. However, according to Head of Garuda Indonesia’s Union Public Relations (Sekarga), Tomy Tampatty, the reduction was not a result of the European debt crisis. Since the opening of flights to Amsterdam, the company has lost around US$3 million per month.
