Severe haze prompts cancellation of two departures at Soekarno-Hatta Airport

Haze from ongoing fires has cut visibility at multiple destination airports to levels unsafe for operations, leading Soekarno-Hatta International Airport to cancel two scheduled flights, according to Yudistiawan, the assistant deputy for communications and legal affairs. He emphasized that the decision was taken to maintain air-traffic safety and that the airport is actively monitoring the situation while working with airlines and other stakeholders.

To prevent passenger bottlenecks, mitigation procedures have been deployed across terminals, aiming to preserve smooth flows and service standards. Passengers are urged to check the latest flight information via their airlines’ official channels before heading to the airport. Additional inquiries can be directed to InJourney Airports’ call centre at 172. Airport operations remain under control despite the disruptions.
