Dream - The price of airplane tickets is considered too expensive, especially for domestic routes, which is still complained by the public. Interestingly, recently the President Director of PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk, Irfan Setiaputra, stated that they have never increased ticket prices in the past five years. So what makes airplane ticket prices expensive?

"Previously, President Director of PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk, Irfan Setiaputra, affirmed that the company's ticket prices have never increased in the past five years. Irfan's statement is in response to allegations that the prices of his airline's tickets are too expensive."

"He also ensures that the price paid by passengers is proportional to the service they receive. However, according to Irfan, the price of aircraft fuel or avtur has increased several times. Not to mention the policy of increasing airport tax by up to 100 percent, as well as the increase in salaries of pilots, cabin crew, employees, directors, which now has increased to 6 people, and other factors."

"Behind the increase in various operational expenses, the company still has to be able to make a profit. 'Everything is rising, everything is rising, how can we make a profit? All costs are rising. Meanwhile, my phone keeps going back and forth, sir, I asked for a ticket, I ran out of tickets, so this complaint about expensive tickets doesn't make sense,' said Irfan."
