Observers For The Ministry Of Transportation's Appeals Or AP I For The Frequency Of Aviation Of Ngurah Rai Airport Bali For Akomodir Delegation Of The G20 Summit

JAKARTA - Aviation observer Arista Atmadjati suggested the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) or airport operator PT Angkasa Pura I (Persero) to increase flight capacity to Bali's I Gusti Ngurah Rai Airport as an effort to accommodate the arrival of the G20 Summit delegation."Especially international flights. Ahead of the Indonesian G20 Summit, passenger traffic and frequency and baggage will definitely increase significantly," said Arista, quoted from Antara, Saturday, October 1.Arista said international flight traffic to Bali would increase along with the arrival of delegates and companions for G20 member countries.He predicts that several delegates from several countries will enter Indonesia through Singapore.However, the observer from the Arista Indonesia Aviation Center (AIAC) requested that the number of official state and commercial flights be fairly regulated.In addition, he continued, international and domestic flight traffic also needs to be regulated as needed so that there is no inequality."My suggestion is that solid slots are fairly regulated, don't sacrifice commercial aircraft slots and ultimately disappoint foreign tourists," he said.Regarding flight management and airports, Arista assessed that there were no significant problems because PT Angkasa Pura had handled flights in the context of major events in Indonesia, such as the 2018 Asian Games and Mandalika MotoGP in March."The (flight) slot is now easier to achieve because everything is computerized system, so there are no problems. We have the experience of two major Asian Games and MotoGP events in Lombok. I think the handling is like that," he said.As is known, Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan asked the Minister of Transportation Budi Karya Sumadi to increase the allocation for booking international flights to Bali ahead of the G20 Indonesia event.Luhut said the number of domestic tourists to Bali also continued to increase.Meanwhile, Bali Governor Wayan Koster admitted that he had submitted to the Minister of Transportation Budi Karya Sumadi to increase flights to Bali as well as lower the ticket price.Koster said, if the price of the plane ticket goes down, there will be more visits to Bali.
