Direct flights with Xpress Air

Indonesian airline Xpress Air, will commence flight services from the Senai International Airport here to two Indonesian cities beginning June 14.

Xpress Air director Henny Kurniawan said the airline will provide direct flight service from the airport to Pontianak in Western Kalimantan and Jogjakarta in Jawa three times a week.

"There are many similarities between Johor Baru and Pontianak in terms of culture, food as well as way of life.

"This explains why we choose Johor Baru as our second city in Malaysia after Kuching in Sarawak where we commenced flights last year.

"There is a big demand for the Pontianak-Johor Baru sector as Johor Baru has several unique attractions for tourists," he said after announcing the new routes here recently.

Present was state Tourism, Trade and Consumerism Committee chairman Datuk Tee Siew Keong.

In conjunction with the new flight service to Johor Baru, the airline is offering a promotional fare of RM265 for the Johor Baru-Pontianak sector within the first month of its service.
