ASDP Implements Single Tariff for Merak–Bakauheni Route During Eid 2026 Holiday, Applies to Following Categories
PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero) has announced the implementation of a single tariff policy that equalises the price of executive services with regular services on the Merak–Bakauheni crossing during the 2026 Eid holiday transport period. This aims to support smooth traffic flow during the mass exodus.
“This policy applies to pedestrians and passenger vehicles to support smooth traffic distribution,” said ASDP Managing Director Heru Widodo in Serang on Sunday (1 March 2026).
At Merak Port, the scheme begins on 13 March at 12:00 WIB until 20 March 2026 at 15:00 WIB. Meanwhile, from Bakauheni Port it applies from 23 March at 00:00 WIB until 29 March 2026 at 24:00 WIB.
He explained that ship and dock placement during this period will be fully adjusted with operational traffic management. Service users will no longer choose services based on regular or express preferences, but will follow set schedules to maintain traffic flow.
“The single tariff policy and discount stimulus aim to ensure the 2026 Eid exodus is more orderly, affordable, and smooth. This is a collaborative step to ease the burden on society,” said Heru.
In line with this policy, ASDP has also provided official clarification regarding the hoax issue of ticket shortages for the 18–31 March 2026 period. Management affirms this information is false.
Based on the latest system data, ticket quota availability for the period 11 March to 1 April 2026 still reaches 99.9 per cent, equivalent to 2.42 million tickets for passengers and vehicles. The public is urged to make reservations independently through the Ferizy application and official website.
“We urge service users to obtain tickets before arriving at the port. Currently capacity is still very sufficient and measured through our digital system,” he added.
Through the implementation of single tariff and strengthened service systems, ASDP is confident that travel during the holiday exodus on this busiest route will proceed more fairly and comfortably for all service users.
