    BALI'S international airport reopened on Wednesday after the third closure in two weeks caused flight cancellations and disrupted the plans of holiday-makers.

    The airport began operating at 3:30 pm local time as the winds shifted direction to the west, carrying the volcanic ash from Mount Raung away from Bali, Transport Ministry spokesman Julius Barata said by phone.
