Indonesian authorities decided to keep Bali's Ngurah Rai International Airport closed until (at least) Wednesday morning (29/11) as volcanic ashes from Mount Agung jeopardize the safety of air traffic.

Meanwhile, Lombok International Airport, located on neighboring island Lombok, was reopened on Tuesday (28/11).
