Boeing 737-900ER

Balikpapan, Indonesia

I have now safely returned to Balikpapan. I took a Lion Air flight from Jakarta yesterday. Unfortunately, the plane was of the new type Boeing 737-900ER. I am always hoping to avoid that plane type when I fly with Lion Air, since the planes are just terrible: The temperature is extremely low, and the seat pitch is extremely small; it is amazing how many seats they have been able to squeeze into that plane. Horrible. Their old planes are much better.
