An Aussie holidaymaker has unleashed a tirade of abuse at Jetstar after he became stranded in Bali due to a volcano eruption which has sparked travel chaos.
The unnamed passenger at Denpasar International Airport didnt hold back as he directed an expletive-filled rant at Jetstar while being interviewed on ABC News on Thursday.
The heavily tattooed passenger, who had a mullet and appeared to be shirtless claimed he had been told his flight had been cancelled and couldnt be rebooked.
When asked what airline he was due to fly home on, the furious passenger replied ‘Jetstar’, before unleashing a string of expletives.
He ended his rant with some blunt advice for other travellers.
‘Don’t fly with them, he fumed.
He wasnt the only Aussie to air their frustrations about being stranded on the Indonesian holiday island.
Virgin Australia passenger Jemma Dunstan was close to tears as she detailed her travel nightmare.

‘Virgin wiped their hands of us and said “We are unable to find you a way home, please find your own, Ms Dunstan told ABC News.
Another Aussie told the broadcaster: Ive got to get home to my three kids.
A Jetstar spokesperson was unable comment on individual passengers.
Daily Mail Australia also contacted Virgin Australia regarding Ms Dunstans situation.
Flights were cancelled earlier this week due to ash clouds from Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki in Indonesia, which has had several eruptions since November 3.
Jetstar, Qantas and Virgin Australia all resumed flights in and out of Bali on Thursday.

‘This includes four scheduled services and two ad-hoc recovery flights.’
The airline added a third ad-hoc flight from Denpasar to Sydney for Friday morning.
We will continue to monitor the changing conditions and volcanic activity and work on plans to operate more recovery flights using aircraft from across the Group so that we can get customers on their way as quickly as possible, Jetstar added.
