Jakarta, April 11, 2022 - PT Pelita Air Service (PAS) ensures that it is ready to develop its business and expand its services to the regular flight segment with two Airbus A320s.
The two aircraft also introduced a new livery on Monday, April 11, 2022, at Soekarno Hatta Airport, Tangerang, Banten.
The new livery was displayed on planes flying from Montpellier Airport, France (MPL) and Sharjah International Airport - United Arab Emirates (SHJ) is named "Ribbon" Livery. The name was given because the livery resembles a ribbon that covers the tail and part of the fuselage with three colors, namely red, blue and green, which can be interpreted as diversity and freedom of expression. The three colors on the livery are also the colors of Pertamina's identity as the parent company of Pelita Air.
Acting Daily Tasks (PTH) President Director of PT Pelita Air Service, Muhammad S. Fauzani, said the arrival of Pelita Air's Airbus A320 today is a historic moment and a new milestone for the company, which previously focused on charter flight services. The arrival of these two aircraft also shows the readiness of Pelita Air in developing its flight services to scheduled commercial flight services. "Currently, Pelita Air is in the process of certifying the Airbus 320, which continues to open scheduled flights, and we hope to operate shortly," said Muhammad S. Fauzani.
Muhammad S. Fauzani also expressed his gratitude for the excellent cooperation and coordination support from regulators, airport managers, air traffic controllers, the crew on duty, and various other parties who have helped smooth the plane's arrival process according to the specified time.
"Pelita Air also thanks Pertamina as parent company management for supporting Pelita Air's business expansion efforts into scheduled commercial flight services," Muhammad S. Fauzani added.
Vice President of Corporate Communications of PT Pertamina (Persero), Fajriyah Usman, explained that as a shareholder, Pertamina encourages Pelita Air Service to improve its performance through various business steps to develop air transportation through regular services that will support connectivity between regions of Indonesia.
"Pertamina supports the Pelita Air Service corporate action so that it continues to grow with the best performance," said Fajriyah.
