Jakarta – Indonesian Tourism and Creative Economy Minister Sandiaga Uno stated that the government has added more flights and increased the availability of airplane seats ahead of the Christmas, and New Year holidays

"With the increase in the number of flights and the availability of seats, the supply will increase, therefore, we expect the price of flight tickets to be affordable in the Christmas and New Year holidays," the Minister explained on Sunday. 

"Several airlines such as Garuda Indonesia, Citilink, Batik Air, Lion Air, Super Air Jet, and Air Asia have added more flights to anticipate the surge of passengers in the year-end holidays," Minister Uno continued.

The Minister mentioned: "New airlines such as Trans Nusa will also start serving tourists' favorite routes at the end of 2023 or 2024," 

According to Minister Uno, many travelers are expected to switch to land transportation because of the high price of airline tickets. 

80 percent of travelers during the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays will use land transportation, the minister added.
