City check-in recommended

JAKARTA (JP): National flag carrier Garuda Indonesia and its
affiliated airline company Merpati Nusantara have suggested
passengers use their city check-in facilities in anticipation of
traffic congestion resulting from the construction of a flyover
on Prof. Sedyatmo toll road that leads to Soekarno-Hatta airport.

The project will cause bottlenecks that are likely to slow
down traffic both to and from the airport.

Using the city check-in facilities are recommended as flight
passengers may arrive late to check in due to traffic disruption.

The project will only be completed in July.

Garuda has opened all its eight check-in offices across the
capital 24 hours a day, while Merpati provides the same facility
at Gambir railway station.

Check-in for overseas flights must be made one hour before
take-off at the latest and 30 minutes prior to take-off at the
latest for domestic flights.
