History

Super Air Jet at Yogyakarta International Airport

Super Air Jet was formally launched in March 2021, and is financed by Lion Air Group founder, Rusdi Kirana.[5] The airline obtained its Air Operator's Certificate from the Indonesian Ministry of Transportation on 30 June 2021 and will be launching the same year to 11 destinations in Indonesia.[6] The airline is headed by Ari Azhari, who once served as the General Manager of Services for the Lion Air Group.[7] Despite the airline's close connections to the Lion Air Group, its official channels has rejected claims of any formal ties to Lion Air and its subsidiaries.[8]

The airline adopts a low-cost carrier model that focuses on point to point journeys to transport passengers between islands in Indonesia. It focuses on millennials as a target market.[9] The airline will launch its services with six maiden routes from Jakarta to Batam, Medan, Padang, Palembang, Pekanbaru, and Pontianak.[9]

Super Air Jet launched flights with three used Airbus A320-200s which formerly flew for India's Indigo and Tigerair Australia.[10] The airline officially commenced operations on 6 August 2021 with a flight from Jakarta to Medan and Batam, following a month long delay due to the Indonesian Community Activities Restrictions Enforcement following the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]
