Indonesia: Jakarta opens dedicated LCC terminal
Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta International Airport opened its first dedicated LCC terminal May 1 as it prepares to handle a growing demand for low-cost travel in Southeast Asia. To create the terminal, designated 2F, the terminal wing was stripped down and amenities such as air-conditioning, duty-free shops and airbridges were removed to reduce operating costs. State-owned PT Angkasa Pura II operates the airport serving the Indonesian capital. The renovation is part of a Terminal 2 upgrade planned to increase capacity from 9m to 22m passengers annually by 2022. Six carriers—Cebu Pacific, Indonesia AirAsia, Lion Air, Malindo Air, Sriwijaya Air and Thai Lion Air— have moved from Terminal 2D to 2F. Jetstar Asia and Scoot will move to the LCC terminal at a later date.<br/>
