Garuda to fly to Auckland, Taipei, HanedaThe Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Tue, 04/17/2012 National flag carrier Garuda Indonesia is going to provide direct service connecting Jakarta and Auckland, New Zealand, next year and to open sales offices in Taipei, Taiwan, and Haneda, Japan, to expand its Asian reach. “We are going to open the route in early 2013. New Zealand is a country with tourism and business potential and we would like to grab this market,” Garuda Indonesia president director EmirsyahSatar said in Jakarta on Monday after signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Auckland Airport chairman Joan Withers. He said that Garuda used to fly to New Zealand years ago, but the impact of the country’s monetary crisis in 1998 forced them to close the route in 2004. The MoU also covered the airline collaboration with the Auckland Airport to promote Indonesian tourism in New Zealand, he said. “The opening of the Jakarta–Auckland route will also help Garuda passengers to fly to European and Latin American countries,” he said.Airline sales and marketing director ArifWibowo said that Garuda will fly seven times a week to Auckland and use the Airbus A330-300 to fly the route. “We are optimistic that the passenger load will reach 78 percent for this route,” Arif said. The number of New Zealand tourists increased from 32,100 in 2010 to 33,200 throughout last year.“In 2015, our passengers will reach 32.5 million from both domestic and international flights,” he said.Garuda’s total number of passengers was 17 million in 2011, up 36 percent from 12.5 million in 2010, including 13.9 million domestic passengers and 3.2 million international passengers. The airline expects to serve 22 million passengers in 2012, up 29 percent from 2011. Moreover, the airline recorded a 39.06 percent increase in revenue in 2011 to Rp 27.16 trillion (US$2.96 billion) and an operating income of Rp 1.01 trillion after suffering Rp 67.16 billion in operating losses in 2010.(nfo)
