JAKARTA - Ahead of Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Fitr, PT Blue Bird Tbk (BIRD) revealed that there had been a lot of requests for bookings or bookings for its bus service, Big Bird.

Blue Bird Deputy President Director Adrianto Djokosoetono said that his party is preparing the entire bus fleet owned to accommodate the high demand for orders ahead of Eid al-Fitr.

Furthermore, Andre, Adrianto's nickname, revealed that the Blue Bird fleet order itself had been open since the previous 6 months.

"In principle, all AVAILable buses that we have are available for rental, there are many," he said, driving at the Blue Bird Office, Jakarta, Tuesday, February 21.

But unfortunately, Andre was reluctant to mention how many bus fleets had been ordered. Even so, Andre said that of the 700 units of the bus fleet owned, some had been contracted, and some were retailed.

Some are contracts, and some are retail. The retail is used for one of them is homecoming activities, whether corporate, or homecoming together, or family, and so on," he said.

Andre is optimistic that the demand for Big Bird services will increase rapidly this year. Moreover, the government has given easing by revoking PPKM.

"Hopefully there will be an increase. It's almost normal now, there should be an increase, we see this year quite optimistic even though there is a shadow called recession," he said.

When asked if Blue Bird would hold a Free Homecoming program, Andre said that his company is currently participating to support it by preparing a fleet.

"We are participating to support," he said.
