Pertamina Facilitates Return Journey, Hundreds of Travellers Head Back to Jakarta
PT Pertamina (Persero) has for the first time introduced a service to mobilise travellers returning to the Special Capital Region of Jakarta. This programme forms part of Mudik Bareng Pertamina 2026 as a demonstration of the company’s commitment to supporting the smooth mobility of the public during the Eid al-Fitr return flow.
Through this programme, Pertamina provides a comfortable, safe, and energy-efficient group journey. Over 900 participants were transported back to Jakarta simultaneously from four assembly points: Cirebon, Semarang, Yogyakarta, and Surabaya.
The departure of travellers from Yogyakarta was officiated by Independent Commissioner of PT Pertamina (Persero), Condro Kirono, at Stadion Mandala Krida on Saturday (28/3). This event plays a crucial role in ensuring the smooth Eid return flow this year.
Condro Kirono stated that the programme not only facilitates mobility but also reflects the spirit of collaboration in maintaining more orderly and efficient journeys.
“This programme represents Pertamina’s concern for supporting public mobility. We aim to accompany the journey from start to finish, not only during the outbound trip but also on the return to Jakarta. Through the use of shared transport, we also hope to promote energy efficiency while helping to reduce traffic density during Eid,” said Condro in his statement on Saturday (28/3/2026).
Meanwhile, Corporate Secretary of PT Pertamina (Persero), Arya Dwi Paramita, added that this return flow service is provided to ensure travellers have a comfortable experience until they arrive in Jakarta.
“We want to ensure that travellers can return to Jakarta smoothly and safely after celebrating Eid al-Fitr with their families,” explained Arya.
Through this programme, Arya revealed that Pertamina is also endeavouring to support the government’s programme on energy efficiency amid the current global situation. By providing bus fleets and facilitating the public with comfortable public transport, Pertamina hopes to encourage society to participate in using energy thriftily.
“The mudik and return service programme using mass transport is a concrete step to reduce fuel consumption. We hope that the public can arrive in Jakarta comfortably, safely, and with pride for having supported energy sustainability for the nation,” Arya concluded.
Previously, on Sunday (15/3), Pertamina had transported more than 5,000 travellers with 153 bus fleets to 23 destinations on Java Island through the Mudik Bareng Pertamina 2026 programme. Under the theme “Safe Mudik, Sharing Hope”, Pertamina actively contributes to providing more orderly mudik journeys, enhancing energy efficiency, and supporting the reduction of exhaust gas emissions.
