Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Budi Karya Sumadi asked airlines to apply ticket prices which are still in the upper limit tariff corridor (TBA) during the Christmas 2022 and New Year 2023 moments.

He expressed this during a visit to Soekarno Hatta Airport, Cengkareng, Tanggerang, Banten, Friday, December 23.

Budi admitted that he had asked the Director General of Civil Aviation Maria Kristi to warn airlines against imposing rates that were too high.

"Regarding ticket prices, Mrs. Director General has given a letter to the airline. I have also communicated with airlines not to apply too high prices," he said.

In addition, Budi also asked airlines to optimally operational aircraft throughout Indonesia.

"I also ask airlines to operationalize their airlines optimally, so that our brothers in Papua, Ambon, NTT can be served properly," he said.

On this occasion, Budi appealed to the public to choose flight hours at night or early morning to get more competitive tickets.

In the midst of increasing flight frequency, Budi requested that flight facilities and infrastructure operators make a number of preparations to anticipate congestion and queues at airports during the Christmas and New Year holidays.

"Some of the points I inspected today are ground handling. I ask AP II and related stakeholders to increase the number of equipment and workers there, because delays in taking goods usually occur at that location," he said.
