Protest against airfares

From Neraca

As a frequent traveler, I was disappointed with the decision made by the state minister of communications and information to take over the task of determining airfares from the Indonesian National Air Carriers Association (INACA). I worry that this step will only interfere with flight services.

INACA has implemented an appropriate fare policy by determining the highest and lowest corridors so travelers can choose the fare fixed by airline companies.

I see no problem with the takeover of airfare arrangement providing that the state ministry of communications and information still uses INACA's fare corridors. I hope the ministry will not implement a single rate system, which was applied in the past, because this old system left passengers with no other choice.
