Hi!

SE Asia airports are a huge challenge for the non rev PAX. Every single flight tends to be overbooked. In a nutshell....it is a nightmare. Stand by lists can easily reach 20 people. Dead easy.

I want to go to Indonesia for 3 weeks...and as far as i could understand Singapore and Kuala Lumpur (to a lesser extent) are the best gateways to get to Jakarta.

How difficult can it be to leave Sinagopre on a Friday/Saturday night flight to Europe (regardless the final destination)? SQ flights excluded - I am not willing to fly ID75.
Any advice?

US colleagues are welcomed to share their stories (SIN to US) too. Is it difficult too?
