Fear of Covid-19, A Man Booked Entire Plane For A Vacation

One particular socialite specifically from Jakarta, Indonesia has taken the Covid-19 precautionary measures to a very high and also new level. This is because he reportedly booked an entire airplane for his family’s new year vacation trip to Bali. He decided to do that in order to protect himself and his beloved wife from the harmful infection of Covid-19.

According to a report, one famous Indonesian socialite named Richard Muljadi has posted a series of stories on his own Instagram social media platform exactly on the 4th of January, that showcasing himself sitting in an empty flight.

He wrote a caption, “After I’d book as many seats as possible, it was still cheaper than chartering a PJ. That’s the trick fellas. #LIFEHACKS”.

Other than that, the Indonesian socialite also shared how he and his wife were “super-paranoid” and scared that they might be getting infected by the Covid-19 virus. Because of that, they went as far as booking an entire flight to avoid traveling with other passengers who might be carrying the virus.

On the other side of the story, the airline company that they used has revealed some additional information that might contradict some of his claims. The company named Lion Air Group, which operates Batik Air has confirmed that both of them were indeed on the flight ID-6502 from Jakarta to Denpasar on the 5th of January 2021.

However, the airline does say that Richard Muljadi only has one booking code, which contains two passengers and it was actually unlikely from what he claimed in his stories. It was also unclear as to whether he purchased other tickets in a separate booking.
