Hooray! Airfare Prices Drop, Jakarta-Bali to IDR 700,000

Jakarta

Airfare prices in Indonesia began to fall. This was stated directly by the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Uno.

In a joint upload on the Instagram accounts @sandiuno and @pesona.indonesia, Sandiaga shows several examples of ticket prices on current favorite routes. For example, Jakarta-Bali, where ticket prices start from IDR 700,000. Previously, the Jakarta-Bali flight ticket price was said to reach IDR 1.3-3.3 million.

Then, Jakarta-Surabaya, where previously airfare prices were at Rp. 1 million and above, now the price is claimed to be only Rp. 600,000. Finally, Jakarta-Yogyakarta claimed ticket prices starting from Rp. 400,000, after previously it could reach Rp. 800,000-1 million.

Sandiaga Uno said airplane ticket price decreased because the price of avtur also fell. That way, airlines began to lower their ticket prices.

“Along with the sloping avtur prices, most airlines in Indonesia apply far more affordable ticket prices compared to the previous few months,” said Sandiaga in his upload quoted on Friday (13/1/2023).

“Good news. Airline ticket prices are starting to drop,” he wrote.

Chairperson of the Association of Indonesian Travel Agents (Astindo) Pauline Suharno also agreed that ticket prices are cheap at this time. According to him, airlines are starting to reopen cheap ticket classes.

“I always say it’s not down, but the price is cheaper. The price for a cheap class is open. In fact, the cheap price has been there for a long time, but the class has never been opened,” said Pauline when contacted detikcom.

So far, airplane tickets are expensive because many airlines have opened ticket classes near the upper limit price (TBA) of flight services.

“It’s been a long time since airlines only opened prices for classes with upper limit rates, so classes that are below, which are cheap are not opened,” said Pauline.
