Jetstar Asia CEO Bara Pasupathi said that the addition of VTL services was a momentum for the airline’s revival.

“A number of cities in Southeast Asia, such as Clark and Manila, are important pathways in expanding our network. Meanwhile, Phuket and Perth are tourist destinations that offer opportunities to relax for our customers,” said Pasupathi, through an official statement received by kompas.com, Monday (2/21).

He added that the confidence of his customers to fly was assessed to have increased due to the increasing number of VTL routes, the easing of quarantine requirements for tourists who were fully vaccinated, as well as the transition from PCR tests to rapid antigen tests. [kompas.com/photo special]
