PT ANGKASA Pura II (AP II) activated the 2022/2023 Christmas and New Year Monitoring Posts from 19 December 2022 to 3 January 2023 at 20 airports under management. AP II airport command post has a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) in operational and service areas.
According to AP II President Director Muhammad Awaluddin revealed the KPI of the Nataru Post at all AP II airports to maintain standards in the operational and service areas amid increasing flight traffic.
“The Nataru Command Post is to maintain the performance of human resources, infrastructure on the air and land sides, and carry out various procedures,” said Awaluddin, Tuesday, (12/20).
Awaluddin said the Monitoring Post was a place for AP II and airport stakeholders to coordinate and collaborate to support a safe, secure, comfortable and healthy Christmas and New Year’s trip.
He said the command post at AP II airport has three main tasks, namely first as a monitoring and inspection post to ensure that security, safety, service and health aspects can run well.
The second task is as a data monitoring post to see air traffic trends every day. The third task is that the Command Post prepares various mitigation measures to prevent and handle conditions that could disrupt airport services and operations.
Based on post data, the number of passenger movements on December 19 2022 at 20 AP II airports (data as of December 20 at 11.09 WIB) cumulatively recorded 212,942 people, an increase of around 27 percent compared to the same period last year of 168,011 people.
Meanwhile, the number of flights increased by around 20 percent to 1,674 flights. Specifically at Soekarno-Hatta Airport, passenger movements reached 132,548 people, up 27 percent from the previous 104,601 people, and the number of flights totaled 938 flights, an increase of 13 percent compared to the previous 787 flights.
AP II Director of Commercial & Services M Rizal Pahlevi said collaboration between stakeholders must always be improved to maintain service standards. “Through the post, stakeholders can improve coordination and collaboration so as to ensure that services are maintained,” said M Rizal Pahlevi.
AP II Director of Operation Muhamad Wasid added that the post can also ensure flight operations in the Christmas-New Year period can run smoothly amid high traffic.
“The Nataru Monitoring Post at Soekarno-Hatta Airport is also strengthened by the Airport Operation Control Center (AOCC) to support airport and flight operations, as well as the Airport Infrastructure Control Center (AICC) to monitor airport utility facilities and systems,” said Muhamad Wasid.
In addition, Soekarno-Hatta Airport has prepared an Emergency Operation Center (EOC) inside the AOCC building. The EOC is only activated if there is an emergency, as a command center for airport stakeholders in making policies to deal with emergencies.
The EOC is also strengthened by the Mobile Command Post (MCP) as a mobile command post to respond quickly if there is an emergency. The flight traffic at AP II airport is expected to continue on an increasing trend until it reaches its peak on December 23, 2022 (H-2 Christmas). [antaranews/photo special]
