A volcanic eruption in Indonesia sent an enormous ash cloud more than six miles into the sky, disrupting or canceling dozens of flights to and from the tourist island of Bali.

Bound for Bali, the Air India flight AI 2145 was advised an air return due to the condition following the volcanic eruption. The flight was scheduled to depart from the Denpasar International Airport in Bali, Indonesia at 10.30 am (local time) and was to land at the Indira Gandhi International Airport around 2.30 pm.

Dozens of Bali flights cancelled after volcano erupts in Indonesia - Airlines say they are closely monitoring the situation and will inform customers of any changes
