AKARTA: Low-cost carrier Indonesia AirAsia announced Saturday that Medan’s Polonia International Airport would serve as a new hub.
“Medan is a fast growing city. It is also represents a potential market for us, especially in terms of the number of passengers, and domestic as well as international flight routes that we can run from here,” Indonesia AirAsia president director Dharmadi was quoted as saying by news portal kompas.com.
Polonia is the airline's fifth hub after Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta, Bandung’s Husein Sastranegara, Surabaya’s Juanda, and Bali’s Ngurah Rai international airports.
Previously, the airline, which first flew to Medan in 2004, served six domestic and international destinations from the city, namely to Bandung, Surabaya, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Bangkok and Hong Kong. — JP
