"By paying attention to these 5 main points, aircraft passengers at Soekarno-Hatta and Halim Perdanakusuma Airports can help smooth flights in the middle of the Jakarta PSBB period," said Muhammad Awaluddin.

In addition to these basic points, airplane passengers must pay attention to other basic information such as the obligation to wear a mask while at the airport and when boarding an airplane, apply physical distancing, and must always be informed about flight operations, such as if there is a change in the flight departure schedule.

Airplane passengers should also know the provisions during the Jakarta PSBB period, for example relating to the use of private cars and public transportation.

For airplane passengers crossing Jakarta traffic by private car, they must pay attention that the maximum capacity can only be filled with 2 people per row of seats, except for 1 domicile

Meanwhile, for airplane passengers crossing Jakarta traffic by public transportation, please pay attention to preparing for departure as early as possible due to capacity restrictions, reduction in service frequency and fleet.

Meanwhile, PT Angkasa Pura II also appealed to aircraft passengers as often as possible to wash their hands with a hand sanitizer and use soap and running water in the sinks scattered at several points in the airport.

Disinfection of facilities and every area at Soekarno-Hatta and Halim Perdanakusuma airports is also routinely carried out.
