Code Data

History

The airline was established in 2002 and started operations in January 2002. It was originally known as Metro Batavia and started operating using wet-leased Fokker F27 aircraft from Sempati. It launched scheduled services from Jakarta to Pontianak in January 2002. It is wholly owned by PT Metro Batavia[1].

In March 2007 the Indonesian transport ministry, under huge political pressure to improve air safety in Indonesia, warned it will close seven airlines unless they improve training and maintenance within the next three months. The ministry developed a formula for ranking the airlines in three bands. Those in the third (least safe) band are: Adam Air, Batavia Air, Jatayu Airlines, Kartika Airlines, Manunggal Air Services, Transwisata Prima Aviation and Tri-MG Intra Asia Airlines[1].
