“We will come up with a package scheme that merges the prices of golf activities and flight tickets, which will then be disseminated by the community,” Garuda Indonesia’s Malaysian General Manager Supriyono said in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.
He made the statement immediately after a meeting with Steven Leow, Chief Executive Officer of PT Leo Golf Sukses Wisata Group, which is a Leisure Golf Service company in the Garuda Indonesia Malaysia offices, located in the Intermark Mall.
“The scheme is aimed to fill morning flight slots from Malaysia to Indonesia. They will be able to immediately head to the golf court and play, as it would still be early in the day. The average length of stay is about three days, and they would board the afternoon return flight. It would be an effective scheme for golf players,” he remarked.
Garuda also offered to be the community’s sponsor partner, should they wish to organize an event or activity, he stated. “There are approximately 500 members in the community, and there could be 10 to 15 golfers who fly to Indonesia per day. Hence the demand is quite high,” he noted.
As for their destination cities, Supriyono said that would vary. “But if they go to Jakarta, they even have an office in the Gunung Sahari area,” he added.
He further explained that Malaysian golfers are keen on trying new places when it comes to golf courts in Indonesia. “Hence, we will also be working with the golf liaison to expand the ‘in’ and ‘out’ of the traffic,” he stated.
Garuda Indonesia has three flights from Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta, including those at 8:40 am, 12:50 pm, and 7 pm. Meanwhile, Garuda Indonesia also provides three flights from Jakarta to Kuala Lumpur, including 8:35 am, 2 pm, and 4:50 pm.
