After the volcanic eruption in Indonesia, several airports reopened

Following a volcanic eruption in Indonesia, several airports including Jakarta's main airport have reopened after two days of closure due to ash fallout. The Ministry of Transport announced that eight airports had suspended operations over the weekend but most have since resumed. The eruption of Anak Krakatau, located in the strait between Java and Sumatra, caused disruptions to nearly 3,000 flights and affected over 340,000 passengers. The impact was particularly severe on international flights connecting Jakarta to Singapore. Travelers faced challenges in rescheduling their trips, and the Indonesian government relaxed rules for foreign visitors who exceeded their allowed stay due to flight cancellations. The volcano has been active since emerging in the early 20th century within the caldera formed by the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa, which was one of history's deadliest natural disasters.
