The busiest route in Indonesia on Sriwijaya Air
Full writeup with pictures on the link
This was to be the last domestic flight I had planned before leaving Indonesia after few weeks of work. I wanted to cover all the major airlines and the only one left was Sriwijaya. Its fleet consists of B737-300 (scheduled for my ride), B737-500, B737-800 and B737-900ER, along with its subsidiary NAM Air, which operates all B737-500.
Srwijaya is the third largest airline group in the country with the top spots with Lion Air Group (Lion, Batik, Wings) & Garuda Indonesia (Garuda & Citilink). They call themselves full service but indeed the service can hardly be classified that way.
When I explored the option I booked the flight operated by B737-300 (B733). It also suited the time band I wanted. The flight originated in Jayapura and continued to Jakarta via Surabaya.

A lovely TR with typical AJ-esque descriptions and comments! Language barriers...interesting.
Bad luck on not getting the rare B733. Yes, the full-service point (or the lack of it), is well-taken.
Thank you for completing the overall scan of the Indinesian landscape as far as airlines go...we eagerly await the description of the destinations as well!
Cheers, Sumantra. |
