According to Djoko, the Ministry of Transportation expects that a decision on changes to the upper limit tariff will be completed by July 2013. "If there are changes, will be notified to the Minister of Transportation, and then disseminated to the public, especially for users of air transport services," he said.
The plan of increase the upper limit tariff of flights will take into consideration the increase in aircraft fuel prices and the weakening of the rupiah against the dollar. "The two factors that increase airline operating costs up to 10%," said Djoko.
Djoko said that the Ministry of Transportation has not received the proposed changes to the upper limit tariff of flights from the airline. However, the rate increase will consider the overall costs (Total Operating Cost). "Then, the type of aircraft will also be considered, since operating costs propeller aircraft is different from a jet plane," he said.
Meanwhile, the Marketing Director of PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk (GIAA), Elissa Lumbantoruan, said that the density of air traffic became the main factors that cause an increase in the number of aircraft fuel. Because, the aircraft became requires additional time before landing at the airport. "From the description of the pilot, the plane had to wait 25 minutes until 40 minutes before landing. Means, increasing the number of aircraft fuel consumption," she said.
