The President Director of Garuda Indonesia, Irfaniaputra, said that discount tickets that can be ordered are for flights from 18 May 2021 to 31 March 2022.

Irfan said, in March, Garuda gave service users the opportunity to get the best ticket price offers through the GOTF event. Not much different, this time Garuda offers discounted flight tickets on various domestic tourist routes. For example, to Bali, Yogyakarta, Labuan Bajo, to Banyuwangi.

"We present the best offer from Garuda by giving a discount of 86 percent for a number of leading domestic tourist routes. Garuda will support and maximize it for leading destinations such as Denpasar, Labuan Bajo, Yogyakarta, Lombok, Banyuwangi," he explained.

The discount can be obtained through official Garuda Indonesia digital channels such as the Fly Garuda application, or via the GOTF microsite www.garuda-indonesia.com/gotf-bni. Access to this ticket discount will be opened at 00.00 WIB tonight.

"Garuda Indonesia is also working with other partners to offer attractive traveling products such as Packages & Hotels, Shopping & Experience, Travel Insurance, and various other additional benefits," he said.

Irfan said that the implementation of GOTF is a manifestation of his party's commitment to continue to actively participate in supporting the recovery of the national economy, especially from the tourism sector, by providing various special and attractive offers for all Indonesians who will plan flights to various national leading tourist destinations.

Moreover, said Irfan, in the midst of this new habitual adaptation period, the need for flight planning by the community is often carried out as early as possible, including to ensure travel readiness and needs can be met properly.

"Therefore, we hope that the presence of GOTF phase two will provide added value for those who plan to travel from afar, such as through a wide selection of flight tickets and domestic travel packages with attractive offers," he explained.
