Jetstar and Virgin Australia have again cancelled their Bali flights because of the volcanic ash plume.

After briefly reopening routes to and from Denpasar Airport overnight, the airlines announced more cancellations on Sunday due to a change in wind conditions affecting the ash from the eruption of Mt Raung.

A spokesman for Jetstar says it will consider reopening evening routes, with a decision to be made by 5pm.

Some Australians stranded on the holiday island made it home early on Sunday for the start of the new school term but others say they are finding it hard to get information about when they might make it onto a plane.

Denpasar Airport has closed until 5pm AEST, Jetstar said.
