PT Pelayaran Nasional Indonesia (Pelni) Kupang predicts that the peak of the homecoming flow at Tenau Port, Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara, using the Pelni ship will occur next Monday.
"On April 17, there will be a ship KM Umsini, and it is estimated that passengers will explode because the last ship was before the red date," said Pelni Kupang Branch Head Harianto Sembiring, quoted by ANTARA, Friday, April 14.
This was conveyed in relation to the readiness of the fleet and the prediction of the peak of the homecoming flow from Kupang to a number of areas in NTT and other areas outside NTT.
Harianto said that the number of travelers on Monday, April 17 next week is estimated at 2,000 passengers, because since the arrival of KM Sirimau the number of travelers has increased to 500.
"Meanwhile, for KM Bukit Sigutang, which will arrive this afternoon until last Thursday, more than 1,000 tickets have been sold," he said.
He added that his party sold tickets according to the capacity of the ship.
Furthermore, he said, to help facilitate the flow of homecoming in NTT, his party prepared five passenger ships. And of the five ships, two of them, namely KM Bukit Sigungtang and KM Umsini, were able to accommodate 2000 passengers.
While the rest are only able to accommodate 1,500 passengers or travelers, because the capacity is small.
