A

s many as 30 Garuda Indonesia flights were delayed for hours on Tuesday due to electrical system failure at newly opened Terminal 3 at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Tangerang, Banten, resulting in long waits for passengers.

Ikhsan Rosan of Garuda Indonesia’s corporate communications division said the delay was caused by an error in the airline's domestic flights check-in counter system.

"The counter machine couldn't print flight tickets and so the service had to be done manually," he said as quoted by wartakota.tribunnews.com.

“Now, [operations] have returned to normal. But in anticipating future impacts, we have stationed some officers in the departure area.”
