I am lucky I tought to check in advance. I really could not expect to have problems in finding a seat on a Monday!!
I hope there will be not huge lines at immigration at HF. I think most people coming back from Batam will be Singaporeans, right? I will be on the line for foreigners. |

This website by our Manpower Ministry states Deepavali as falling on 24th Oct and isa gazetted Public Holiday in Singapore.
Regarding roaming plan, i'm using this travel sim (AirSim) when on my travel out of the country. Still using my simpati that's registered 4 years ago in Palembang when I'm in BATAM. But, I'll be in BATAM next week and will try to use this simcard when I'm there.
According to this website, SIR HANDPHONE SHOP in Harbourfront listed as an official retailer for this simcard.

You can use this card worldwide by just purchasing a cheap roaming plan for the country you're visiting. For Indonesia, it's just $2 a day of unlimited usage and you can connect to Telkomsel and Indosat. Of course, Fair Usage Policy applies.
I'm just a satisfied customer and not connected to AirSim in any way.
