Tiger-backed Mandala resumes operations with focus on Indonesia’s largest routes

5-Apr-12 8:06 AM

Indonesia’s Mandala Airlines has resumed operations and emerged from bankruptcy as a new affiliate of Asian LCC group Tiger Airways. Mandala’s first flight in 15 months operates today (05-Apr-2012) on one of Indonesia’s largest domestic routes, Jakarta-Medan. But the new Mandala, which only operated domestic services before its Jan-2011 grounding, will focus primarily on international routes starting with Medan-Singapore and Jakarta-Kuala Lumpur.

Mandala last week announced Jakarta-Medan and Jakarta-Kuala Lumpur as its first two routes as a Tiger partner carrier, with flights commencing on 05-Apr-2012 and 04-May-2012, respectively. But Tiger’s booking engine indicates that Mandala will start operating international flights earlier - on 20-Apr-2012 with one daily frequency on the Medan-Singapore route. More routes, primarily international but also some domestic, are expected to be added over the next few months as Mandala rapidly spools up its fleet of Tiger-sourced Airbus A320s.

Singapore Airshow 2012: Pacific Royale launch to intensify full service competition in Indonesia

17-Feb-12 10:23 AM

Competition in Indonesia is about to intensify further as Pacific Royale prepares to launch services next month with an initial fleet of two Fokker 50s and two A320s based in Surabaya and Batam. Pacific Royale is targeting Garuda and Indonesia’s other full service carriers with a low-density two-class product on its A320s that includes lightweight fibre optics-based in-flight entertainment (IFE) systems in both cabins. The carrier’s business plan envisions rapid growth including 20 to 25 A320s, which will form the backbone of Pacific Royale’s fleet, within three years.

Pacific Royale will launch with domestic services but regional international services, primarily from Indonesia’s second largest city of Surabaya, are planned as part of a second phase which is slated to begin by mid-2012. Medium to long-haul international services with A330s are also being considered as part of a third phase which could begin as early as late 2012. While Pacific Royale will have several routes from Jakarta, where it has established its headquarters, it will focus primarily on relatively underserved point-to-point markets which bypass the congested capital.
