        "content": "<p>Prospective Hajj pilgrims from Central Java will begin entering the\nDonohudan Hajj Dormitory in Boyolali Regency on 22 April 2026. The total\nnumber of pilgrims departing via Solo Embarkation reaches 29,121 people,\ndivided into 81 flight groups (kloter).<\/p>\n<p>The Head of PPIH (Hajj Service Officers) for Solo Embarkation,\nFitriyanto, stated that the first kloter is scheduled to enter earlier,\non 21 April 2026 at 06:00 WIB from Tegal Regency.<\/p>\n<p>This kloter will depart for Saudi Arabia on 22 April 2026 at 01:05\nWIB. \u201cThe first kloter consists of 360 people, comprising 356 pilgrims\nand four officers,\u201d said Fitriyanto when met at the Donohudan Hajj\nDormitory in Boyolali on Monday, 20 April 2026.<\/p>\n<p>He mentioned that Central Java has received a Hajj quota of 34,122\npeople this year. The breakdown includes 32,138 regular pilgrims, 1,706\nelderly priority pilgrims, 191 regional Hajj officers, and 87 KBIHU\n(Hajj and Umrah Guidance Group) guides.<\/p>\n<p>In its implementation, the departure of pilgrims is divided between\ntwo embarkations. As many as 81 kloters will depart via Solo\nEmbarkation, while others will go through Yogyakarta Embarkation.\n\u201cFifteen kloters from Central Java will join via Yogya Embarkation,\nmaking a total of 26 kloters departing from there,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>The pilgrims redirected to Yogyakarta Embarkation come from the\nformer Kedu Residency area, including Magelang Regency, Magelang City,\nTemanggung Regency, Wonosobo Regency, Purworejo Regency, and Kebumen\nRegency, totalling around 6,000 people.<\/p>\n<p>According to Fitriyanto, this policy is intended to reduce pilgrim\nfatigue due to shorter travel distances, while also easing congestion at\nSolo Embarkation. \u201cWith this division, services can be more optimal and\npilgrims more comfortable,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of readiness, Fitriyanto assured that services are nearly\n100% prepared. Simulations are currently being conducted, particularly\nfor one-stop services at the Donohudan Hajj Dormitory.<\/p>\n<p>One improvement in services this year is the distribution of Nusuk\ncards carried out in Indonesia before departure. Thus, pilgrims will\nalready hold the cards upon arrival at the dormitory. \u201cSo upon arriving\nin Saudi Arabia, pilgrims can immediately focus on worship,\u201d he\nstated.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding age composition, around 40% of pilgrims are elderly aged\nover 65 years. PPIH emphasises the importance of mutual cooperation\namong pilgrims to assist the elderly group during the pilgrimage\njourney. The oldest pilgrim is from Klaten, aged 84 years, while the\nyoungest is 13 years old from Magelang, departing as a replacement.<\/p>",
