Kualanamu Becomes Sister Airport of Incheon
JAKARTA - PT Angkasa Pura II (AP II) will make Kualanamu Airport in Deli Serdang, North Sumatera, as a sister airport of Incheon Airport (Incheon International Airport Corporation / IIAC). Kualanamu will be developed just like Incheon Airport, in line with the state-owned enterprise (BUMN)’s plan to make Kualanamu a hub of international flights. .......... Tri Sunoko revealed that his office will soon partner with IIAC to realise the plan. By becoming a sister airport, Kualanamu Airport can imitate or adopt things that have been done by the IIAC to Incheon Airport. Both in creating passenger service, cargo, flight operations, commercialisation, as well as measures to create contributions to the local economy and job creation. |

With the airport now officially named Kuala Namu International Airport and will continue to carry the IATA code of MES, I think we can now assign a proper code for this airport in Medan, North Sumatra.

Kuala Namu Airport set to replace Medan’s Polonia this month
The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Business | Wed, January 02 2013, 4:27 PM Kuala Namu International Airport, designated to replace Polonia Airport in Medan, North Sumatra, is set begin operating this month, a minister has said. “We will begin the ‘shadow operation’ this month,” Transportation Minister E E Mangindaan said at his office on Wednesday as quoted by tempo.co. During the shadow operation the government is to review the airport’s processes and pick up on any flaws within the next two months before the airport is announced to be fully operational. Separately, Deputy Transportation Minister Bambang Susantono said that railway facilities supporting the airport will be ready in March to coincide with when the new airport will be fully operational. State-owned airport operator PT Angkasa Pura II, which is cooperating with South Korea’s Incheon International Airport Corporation, stated that Kuala Namu would be a transit airport supporting Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta Airport. Passengers will also be able to fly directly from Kuala Namu to Incheon Airport, to connect to other destinations. Kuala Namu Airport is situated in the former area of state-owned plantation firm PT Perkebunan Nusantara II Tanjung Morawa in Kuala Namu, Beringin village, Deli Serdang regency. It is designed to replace the 70-year-old Polonia Airport, which has been operating beyond capacity. It will be the second largest airport in Indonesia after Soekarno Hatta Airport. (swd) |

Kuala Namu to start operations in March
Nurfika Osman, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Headlines | Fri, January 04 2013, 11:19 AM Paper Edition | Page: 3 After 19 years of design and construction, the Kuala Namu International Airport in North Sumatra is slated to fully commence operations in March to replace the 70-year-old Polonia Airport located in the heart of the province’s capital, Medan. Deputy Transportation Minister Bambang Susantono said on Thursday that the airport would start trial operations this month to review the flow of its operations and detect possible flaws before putting it into full service. “We have to begin operations at Kuala Namu in the first quarter of this year because of the sharp jump in passenger traffic at Polonia, which is running beyond its capacity,” said Bambang. “With the current [construction] progress, we believe we that we’ll be able to operate on-schedule,” he said. According to the Transportation Ministry, around 90 percent of Kuala Namu’s construction had been completed as of Dec. 28. State airport operator PT Angkasa Pura II (AP II) is currently finishing the airport’s runway, which involves improvements of its surface. Expected to serve as the main gateway for resource-rich Sumatra, the airport will have the capacity to serve 8.1 million passengers annually. The airport, located around 42 kilometers from Polonia, will be equipped with a 3,750-meter runway and 33 aprons that will be able to accommodate wide-body aircraft, such as Airbus A330s, A380s, and Boeing B747s. Transportation to the airport will also be equipped with railway facilities linking the airport with Medan. According to Bambang, the railway would also be fully operational in March. State railway company PT Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) is accelerating the project after it fully acquired the needed land in December, Bambang added. Travelers from Medan will arrive at the airport within just 30 minutes. The government and AP II have spent Rp 10.6 trillion (US$1.1 billion) for the airport — more than threefold the initial estimation of around Rp 3.5 trillion offered to investors during the government-initiated Infrastructure Summit in 2005. The investment excludes the cost for the railway. According to the ministry, soaring costs were mostly driven by expensive land acquisition, inflation adjustment and design changes. Experts have also pointed out project mismanagement and flaws in its initial design for contributing to the whopping costs. Investments in Kuala Namu have surpassed investments in the extension of Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, which has been earmarked at around Rp 7 trillion. The extension, which will acquire vast land already occupied by housing compounds in the north-west area of Jakarta, will have the capacity to serve 40 million passengers annually, and will be equipped with a longer runaway than that of Kuala Namu. |

Over 1 billion dollar for an airport with only 8.1 million PAX capacity in an low-cost labored country is a little bit expensive, isn't it? It's a shame!
