Garuda Indonesia is the national airline of Indonesia and the country's largest airline carrier. Founded in 1949, Garuda Indonesia is named after the legendary bird Garuda, the mount of God Vishnu in Hindu mythology. The company is headquartered in Jakarta and operates both domestic and international flights.

Garuda Indonesia is recognized as a 5-star airline and is generally known for its comfortable service. It was awarded 5-star airline status by Skytrax in 2014. The company has a large fleet of aircraft, operating many flights, especially to Asia, Europe and Australia.
