What we can confirm

The underlying claim is supported by multiple reputable reports about volcanic eruptions in Indonesia causing suspension of flights at Bali's main airport and stranding large numbers of passengers. However, the exact wording is imprecise: the evidence most directly matches past Bali airport closures from volcanic ash, including reports of roughly 20,000 stranded travelers in 2015 and about 59,000 affected in 2017, rather than one uniquely identified event phrased exactly as in the claim.
