"The high public interest in using Damri transportation services during the Maulid Nabi Muhammad SAW holiday which is close to this weekend shows the high public confidence in safe and safe land transportation," said Pohan.

Data released by Damri shows that ticket sales for departures from Wednesday 27 September to Thursday 28 September reached 6,628 tickets, an increase of 56.1 percent compared to the previous week in the same period, which only reached 4,245 tickets. Damri estimates that ticket sales will continue to increase as ticket sales continue until Friday 29 September.

During the national holiday period, Damri also monitored and evaluated passenger movements at various points, including the Damri Kemayoran pool.

In addition, Damri appealed to all customers to order tickets online and offline through Damri Apps, online travel agents, or Damri's official marketing counter.
