In awarding the award, OAG looked at airline capacity growth at Asia Pacific airports between 2019-2023. Cin said that when the COVID-19 pandemic hit in early 2020, AP II and all stakeholders tried to ensure that the pandemic should not have much impact on the operations of Soetta Airport, which is the country's main gateway and the largest airport in Indonesia.

“We understand Soekarno-Hatta Airport is an aviation anchor within the country, where aviation becomes the most efficient transport in Indonesia which is an island nation,” he said.

According to him, thanks to the close collaboration of all parties, including AP II, COVID-19 Task Force, airlines, AirNav Indonesia, TNI, Police, immigration, customs, quarantine, ground handling as well as the full support of the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of state-owned enterprises, Soetta Airport has never reduced operating hours amid the pandemic.

“It remains in operation 24 hours a day to serve various types of flights, including pandemic relief and flights carrying vaccines. We thank all stakeholders, to all airport staff for their dedication during the pandemic,” Cin said.
