        "summary": "PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry reports that 79 percent of Eid holiday returnees from Sumatra to Java have crossed back by H+6 after Lebaran 2026, with 713,702 passengers and 188,559 vehicles recorded out of totals of 898,864 and 239,920 respectively. The return flow remains controlled despite peak volumes, aided by even traffic distribution and measures like fleet optimisation, a single tariff policy, and rerouting of large logistics vehicles to alternative ports. These strategies ensure smooth operations and safety during the high-traffic period, with overall crossings showing modest year-on-year increases.",
        "content": "<p>JAKARTA \u2013 PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero) recorded that 79 percent\nof holidaymakers from Sumatra have returned to Java by H+6 after Lebaran\n2026.<\/p>\n<p>Data shows that 713,702 passengers have crossed from a total of\n898,864 during the outbound flow. The number of vehicles returning\nreached 188,559 units, or 79 percent of the total 239,920 units.<\/p>\n<p>ASDP\u2019s Director of Operations and Transformation, Rio Lasse, stated\nthat the return flow is proceeding in a controlled manner despite\nentering the peak phase.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe increasingly even distribution of traffic has been a key factor.\nWith this pattern, the crossing flow can still be managed optimally even\nthough the volume of movement is high,\u201d said Rio in an official\nstatement on Monday (30\/3\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Data from the Bakauheni Post over 24 hours on 28 March 2026 recorded\n111,589 passengers crossing from Sumatra to Java. This figure is down 11\npercent from last year\u2019s 125,406 people.<\/p>\n<p>The number of vehicles recorded was 29,893 units, up 3.7 percent from\n29,839 units in the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>Cumulatively for the H-10 to H+6 period, the total passengers from\nSumatra to Java reached 1.14 million people, up 2.5 percent from 1.12\nmillion last year. The total vehicles reached 278,950 units, growing 5.9\npercent from 263,481 units.<\/p>\n<p>For the reverse direction, passengers from Java to Sumatra were\nrecorded at 1.2 million people, up 2.3 percent. The number of vehicles\nreached 320,283 units, an increase of 6.8 percent from 299,824\nunits.<\/p>\n<p>ASDP has implemented several measures to maintain smoothness. These\ninclude optimising the ship fleet, the Arrive-Unload-Depart scheme, a\ndelaying system in the buffer zone, as well as tariff discounts and a\nsingle tariff policy.<\/p>\n<p>Large logistics vehicles in groups V B to IX are rerouted via Muara\nPilu Port to Bojonegara. Ticket sales for that category have also been\ntemporarily halted at Bakauheni during that period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe urge all logistics operators to comply with the regulations that\nhave been set during this Lebaran transport period,\u201d said Rio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCompliance with the restriction policies is key to maintaining the\nsmoothness of the return flow and collective safety,\u201d he added.<\/p>",
