Malaysians stranded in Jakarta after their flight was cancelled due to volcanic ash from Mount Anak Krakatau are paying an extra RM10,000 to return home via Surabaya. The family of Wan Nor Ridani will travel by car to Surabaya to catch a flight to Senai, as direct flights to Kuala Lumpur are fully booked. Airport operations remain suspended until 6pm today, causing severe congestion.
