JAKARTA, April 1014 —
According to Deputy Transportation
Minister Bambang Susantono, Indonesia will have a total of 299 airports in five
years time, adding that 62 new airport projects are currently in the pipeline.
Quaoting Bambang, “they are not all as big as city airports,
but they are essential to improve accessibility in our country.”
Most of the new airports would be built in the eastern parts

distribute both people and goods in places like eastern Indonesia which have a
challenging topography,” he further added.
As of today, there are 237 airports in Indonesia. Out of 237, 16 of which are commercial and
are situated in big cities managed by state-run operators, PT Angkasa Pura I
