(Reuters) - Virgin Australia cancelled all flights in and out of Bali, Indonesia, on Wednesday as volcanic ash from the eruption of Mount Lewotobi made flying unsafe, the carrier said. Indonesia's Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki erupted at least three times last Saturday, discharging a volcanic ash column that was 9 km (5.6 miles) high.

Jetstar has confirmed the cancellation of some flights to Bali on Wednesday due to the deadly eruption of a volcano in Indonesia more than a week ago.

Ongoing eruptions at Indonesia's Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki volcano have caused ash clouds, creating a potentially dangerous situation for air travellers.
