Benny Bachtiar said the "Kertajati Menyapa" event is a manifestation of the spirit of economic revival after the COVID-19 pandemic that has occurred since 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic indirectly has an impact on reducing flight activity in Kertajati. According to Benny, the airport located in Majalengka Regency plays a very important role in becoming a catalyst for the economic growth of people in West Java that focuses on the tourism, culture and creative economy sectors.." I strongly support this collaboration event positively, because West Java Kertajati Airport is one of the gates of West Java Tourism which has long been waiting to be able to resume operations, "said Benny. Previously in Bandung, similar activities were also held at Tentrem Mall, Semarang on November 23-27, 2022.
