Malaysia Airlines flight MH2626 from Kuala Lumpur landed in the wee hours of Friday morning but all other flights into the airport were cancelled as the ash from the eruption continued to be a threat to airplanes. Many passengers were seen checking their phone notifications, emails and the airport screens for updates.

“Malaysia Airlines is pleased to inform that it has commenced the gradual reinstatement of flights to and from Sabah, Sarawak, and the Federal Territory of Labuan. In Sarawak, though, things were getting back to normal at the Kuching International Airport, with most flights arriving and leaving as scheduled.
