GARUDA INDONESIA MAXIMISES
SOUTH JAVA FLIGHT ROUTE
National flag carrier Garuda Indonesia
has proposed a shortening of the southern
flight route for Java Island to improve
flight time efficiency for the route, while
reducing flight frequency on the island’s
northern flight route.
Java’s northern route is notably busier
than its southern counterpart, which
demands an additional six minutes
of flight time as well as more fuel,
according to Operational Director at
PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk.
Capt. Triyanto Moeharsono.
According to Capt. Triyanto,
Garuda Indonesia has previously utilised its
Jakarta–Bali flight to test the southern route,
and results show the airline completing the
route in 1 hour and 34 minutes, slightly
longer than the northern route’s 1 hour
and 28 minutes’ flight time.
Capt. Triyanto shared this information
during a speaking engagement in a seminar
titled ‘Indonesian Flight Navigation
Management’ at Novotel Hotel in
Tangerang on March 1, 2018.
Head of the Ministry of Transportation’s
Flight Navigation Operation Sub-Directorate
M. Hasan Bashory echoed Triyanto’s
statements, saying the flight time on
the southern route – known as Tango 1
or T1 – is slightly longer than that of
the northern Java route – known as
Whiskey Four Five (W45) – due to
the difference in flight distance.
However, Hasan noted that opening
the southern route for commercial flights
would be a solution to minimising flight
traffic in northern Java.
Garuda Indonesia Memaksimalkan
Jalur Penerbangan Selatan Jawa
Garuda Indonesia mengusulkan
pemendekan jalur penerbangan selatan
Pulau Jawa. Usulan ini diharapkan
mampu memaksimalkan efisiensi waktu
penerbangan di jalur selatan sekaligus
mengurangi pergerakan di jalur utara Jawa.
Jalur utara Jawa lebih padat dan ramai
dibanding jalur selatan. Sementara sekarang
ini untuk menempuh jalur selatan dari arah
utara, menurut Direktur Operasi PT
Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk., Capt.
Triyanto Moeharsono, “Waktu penerbangan
bertambah enam menit. Avtur yang
dibutuhkan juga lebih banyak.”
Triyanto mengaku Garuda Indonesia
telah menguji coba jalur selatan lewat
penerbangan dari Jakarta ke Bali. Hasilnya,
waktu tempuh tercatat 1 jam 34 menit.
Sedangkan dari Jakarta ke Bali melalui
jalur utara hanya butuh 1 jam 28 menit.
Pernyataannya tersampaikan saat menjadi
salah satu pembicara dalam seminar
penerbangan bertajuk “Pengelolaan Navigasi
Penerbangan Indonesia” di Hotel Novotel,
Tangerang pada 1 Maret 2018.
Kepala Sub-Direktorat Operasi Navigasi
Penerbangan Kementerian Perhubungan,
M. Hasan Bashory, membenarkan
pernyataan Triyanto. Menurut Hasan,
waktu tempuh di rute selatan—yang
dikenal dengan Tango 1 atau T1—lebih lama
dibanding jalur utara Jawa atau Whiskey
Four Five (W45), lantaran terdapat
perbedaan jarak tempuh.
Hasan menjelaskan, pembukaan jalur
selatan untuk penerbangan sipil merupakan
solusi guna mengurangi kepadatan lalu
lintas penerbangan di utara Jawa.
