“Bookings can be made directly with the respective airlines, as well as through apps like Traveloka and others,” the minister remarked.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Transportation has coordinated with the Ministry of Tourism to offer further discounts for those purchasing tickets through travel agencies, as these agencies fall under the Ministry of Tourism’s oversight.

“We have also discussed this with the Minister of Tourism because travel agency applications are managed under the Ministry of Tourism. This will allow synchronization between platform providers and the policies that were recently issued,” the minister explained.

As more information, President Prabowo Subianto has pledged that airfares will decrease two weeks before Eid homecoming 2025.

Currently, the government is still preparing to lower airfare prices for those traveling Eid al-Fitr this year.

“We were also preparing to reduce airfares in the next two weeks,” the head of state said several days ago.

In addition to airfare discount, President Prabowo has also promised to lower toll road fees during the 2025 Eid homecoming and return traffic period.
