Wings Air opens new route to connect Southeast Sulawesi cities

Lions Air’s subsidiary, Wings Air, has opened a new route connecting two cities in Southeast Sulawesi, Bau-Bau and Kendari, following increased demand. Lion Air Group airport manager in Bau-Bau, Komang Astawa, said that the new route was launched on Wednesday and would fly once per day. The Bau-Bau administration had asked for the service to open since last year, but the airline only realized the plan this year as it was awaiting newly built planes from France. Manufactured at the Avions De Transport Regional (ATR) factory, the turboprop powered ATR 72600 aircraft can accommodate 72 passengers. <br/>
