The Crown Princess's return trip was planned via the capital, Jakarta, where she was to have met with President Prabowo Subianto, among other things.
"The programme items that were planned in Jakarta are unfortunately cancelled for the Crown Princess, which is incredibly sad for everyone involved," writes the court's head of information, Margareta Thorgren, to TT.
Among other things, the court wants to avoid the Crown Princess and the delegation of about ten people getting stuck in Jakarta and thus risking missing King Harald's funeral in Oslo on Wednesday. The return trip will be via Bali.
Almost half of all flights from Jakarta have been cancelled in recent days due to the eruption of the Anak Krakatau volcano. Jakarta's international airport was able to reopen late Monday, according to AFP.
