08APR2013: Merpati faces uncertain future as Government mulls pulling plug
Merpati (MZ, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)) faces an uncertain future over reports that its sole shareholder, the Indonesian government, is considering closing down the debt-ridden airline. Indonesia's State-Owned Enterprises Minister, Dahlan Iskan, said he would consider numerous proposals made regarding the shutting down of the airline, which, despite a change in leadership effected last year, has yet to show any signs of a turn around. Cost cutting measures thus far have seen Merpati axe roughly 12 routes from its previous 124-strong network with figures showing that 112 of them were unprofitable owing to load factors of less than 60%. Merpati's debts currently stand at US$32.7million, owed mostly to state-owned institutions such as oil and gas firm PT Pertamina for fuel purchases, Mandiri Bank, airport operator Angkasa Pura II, state asset manager PT PPA and PT Jasindo, an insurance firm. Indonesian aviation sources speculate as to how even a propped-up Merpati would fare in the long run against the likes of Lion Airlines (JT, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)), Citilink (QG, Surabaya Juanda (SUB)) and a resurgent Mandala Airlines (RI, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)) all of whom have set their sights on dominating, not just the domestic Indonesian market, but the regional South East Asian one as well.

10FEB2013: Express Air and Sriwijaya take over Batavia routes to Pontianak
Express Air (XN, Makassar Hasanuddin (UPG)) has launched daily service from Batam Hang Nadim (BTH) to Pontianak Supadio (PNK) on February 7 taking over one of the only routes bankrupt Batavia Air (Y6, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)) had not served in competition with other Indonesian carriers already. Sriwijaya Air (SJ, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)) has announced plans to take over the route from Yogyakarta Adi Sucipto (JOG) to Pontianak. Low-cost carriers Citilink (QG, Surabaya Juanda (SUB)) and Mandala Airlines (RI, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)) are both planning to enter new markets where capacity was lost due to the market exit of Batavia but that are already served by other carriers.

16JAN2013: Citilink confirms 25 Garuda A320neo options
Citilink (QG, Surabaya Juanda (SUB)) will confirm options for 25 additional A320neos from an order originally made by parent Garuda Indonesia (GA, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International (CGK)) in 2011. At the time, Garuda had ordered 15 A320-200s and 10 A320neos for its Citilink strategic business unit that has since become an independent carrier with an own air operator certificate. Citilink has now announced plans to confirm all 25 options and will then eventually operate 35 A320neos. The low-cost carrier currently operates 14 A320-200s, 6 B737-300s and a single B737-400.
