KAI Ensures Commuter Line Operations Normal Amid Anak Krakatau Eruption

KAI Commuter has confirmed that Commuter Line travel services across all areas on Sunday, 6 September 2026, are operating normally despite the eruption of Mount Anak Krakatau.

VP Corporate Secretary of KAI Commuter, Karina Amanda, stated that KAI Commuter continues to operate Commuter Line services normally across all areas.

“The Merak Commuter Line service, which operates closest to the location of Mount Anak Krakatau, continues to operate normally with a total of 14 journeys, 7 departure schedules from Merak Station and 7 journeys towards Merak Station,” said Karina on Sunday, 6 September 2026.

In addition, the Soekarno-Hatta Airport Commuter Line (Basoetta) is also operating normally on this Sunday, serving a total of 64 journeys.

This is despite Soekarno-Hatta Airport not yet serving customers for either domestic or international flights as of Sunday afternoon.

Karina explained that KAI Commuter continues to operate the Basoetta Commuter Line service normally despite the cancellation of flights at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport until Sunday afternoon.

In the Jabodetabek area, the impact of volcanic ash carried by the wind has begun to be observed at several Commuter Line stations.

KAI Commuter has therefore urged all users and the wider public to wear masks while in station areas and during Commuter Line journeys.

Users are also advised to remain vigilant and prioritise safety, follow staff instructions, and maintain their health during activities.

KAI Commuter will continue to monitor developments regarding the implementation of Commuter Line travel services while prioritising the safety and security of users and Commuter Line journeys.

“KAI Commuter also urges passengers to regularly monitor information related to Commuter Line operations through the official social media account @commuterline or the C-Access application,” said Karina.
