Carry Out Vital's Role As The Busyest Airport During Eid Al-Fitr 2025 Homecoming And Backflow, YIA Becomes The Masterpiece Of Semen SIG's Advantage
Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA) is one of the busiest airports during the Lebaran 2025 holiday with high passenger traffic. YIA has served up to hundreds of thousands of air transportation users, from homecoming to Eid 2025 backflow.
Noted as one of the largest airports in Indonesia, YIA is a masterpiece built with cement products from PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG). SIG's Corporate Secretary, Vita Mahreyni said, YIA is an important infrastructure that maintains smooth transportation and convenience from and to Yogyakarta, especially during the Eid holiday.
We understand that each construction has its own needs, especially each. YIA is not only a large capacity airport, but its design also functions to provide comfort for passengers who are traveling. Therefore, the GIS product application also supports the comfort function presented by YIA," said Vita Mahreyni, Thursday, April 10.
With a total area of 587 hectares (ha) in Kulon Progo Regency, Yogyakarta, YIA has a passenger terminal of 219,000 m2 with a capacity of up to 20 million passengers per year. YIA also has a runway (runway) of 3,250 meters, as well as an apron (parking area, loading and unloading, and maintenance of aircraft) that can accommodate 45 aircraft. This allows YIA to serve wide-body aircraft such as Air Bus A380 and Boeing 777.
In addition to having a large capacity, YIA is also designed with resistance to 8.8 magnitude earthquakes, as well as a tsunami with a maximum height projection as high as 12.8 meters above sea level (MSL). YIA is also designed to be able to anticipate flooding with channels that can accommodate potential flooding, such as ponds or temporary water reservoirs with a volume of 43,300 m3, as well as airport channels that can function as long storage with a capacity of 180,000 m3. In addition, YIA is also equipped with a 4-story Crisis Center building covering an area of 5,284 m2, as an evacuation site as many as 1,000 people.
Vita Mahreyni added, during the physical construction period, or from December 2018 to May 2019, SIG supplied more than 150 thousand tons of cement for the construction of YIA. cement products from GIS are used in the construction of runways that require maximum strength, as well as construction of passenger terminal buildings and supporting buildings.

Meanwhile, at the YIA area development stage, SIG supplies special type cement products for flood control projects, with high durability to extreme environments. Cement with environmentally friendly formulas produces concrete with low hydration heat and optimal resistance to sulfate and chloride in areas exposed to seawater.
"SIG has a complete product specification range and supporting service solutions to meet the requirements for building conditions as needed and support the smooth running of development projects. With all the advantages available, GIS is ready to be at the forefront of development in Indonesia," said Vita Mahreyni.
