Indonesia grounds planes belonging to budget carrier Adam Ai

Anna Chan: Indonesian budget carrier Adam Air has had its flights grounded over safety concerns. The airline has suffered a series of accidents and defaulted on debt payments. Here's the full story. Indonesia's Director General of Air Transport has found evidence of potential danger on Adam Air jets. The company's operations have been halted since midnight on Tuesday. The decision has left Adam Air's passengers stranded at airports. [Passenger, Adam Air]: "We will go to the headquarters together to ask for refunds of our tickets." Adam Air has three months to fix its problems. If they don't their Air Operation Certificate will be revoked. [Herry Bakty, Indonesian Transportation Ministry]: "It is not true that Adam Air was closed or not operated. We already have a guarantee from Adam Air management that all passengers will transfer with other airlines, and Adam Air will give refunds for their tickets." Airline president Adam Suherman says his company needed cash fast to pay insurance payments due this week. If they weren't paid the planes would have to stop flying temporarily. In January 2007, an Adam Air plane crashed into the sea off Sulawesi Island, with all 102 people on board presumed dead. Indonesia has suffered a string of airline disasters in recent years. Concerns about safety standards prompted the European Union to ban all Indonesian airlines from its airspace.

If your hands are sweating or your heart beating faster just before take-off or landing, you're probably one of this nation. Depend on where you are traveling, these feelings can be intensified, especially if you have the numerous tragic accident that the affected region have been involved in. Listened

The purpose of this article is not that moreFear of taking the plane, but only to inform you of the reality. And can help you take the right decision when purchasing your ticket. Also a way to travel 100% security does not exist yet and will probably never do, we all want to put the balance in our favor. In some countries, minimum pension and complete information seems necessary.

I love Indonesia. It is a beautiful country with more than ten thousand tropical islands, thousands of dialects and hundreds of interestingCultures. White sand and beautiful beaches, impenetrable rainforest and on the islands of the active volcanoes make this area one of the most beautiful countries in the world for backpackers. The wild life in the sea than in rural areas are incredibly diverse and Indonesia are among hundreds if not thousands of species found nowhere else you can find. In addition, Indonesia has to offer rich natural resources, food, and premium material for this over populated country (more than 200 millionPeople).

What is the relationship with the plane? I think many people are reluctant to travel around Indonesia since the last event. Or should I say events (with an "s"). In fact, in recent years in view of the catastrophic plane crash. Unfortunately, this wonderful country is by a large majority of the corrupt politicians who control much better than the plane Regulation is not regulated. As it is, of course, the big competitions among the Airlines Company push each of them to reduceAt any cost. And very often starting by reducing the frequency of the maintenance of their aircraft or the use of old spare parts, etc.. This can be scary, but it's true.

Obviously, the Indonesian Transport Ministry recently announced that it will likely fall three airlines, the lowest rating category. The airlines were Adam Air Wings Air and Air Dirgantara. Basically, they separate the different companies in three categories. The first category(Category I) is described as "fully compatible regarded" group. The companies in the last category (category III) is three months time to make improvements withdrawn prior to their licenses. The mean (Category II) is for the companies that have met the minimum requirement of safety but has not yet complied with a series of flight-related safety measures.

After they reviewed the safety for all 20 airlines, they come with the following results.

None of theAirlines are fully complying with safety regulations. This means that none are the airline companies all over Indonesia in category I. The 13 companies are in Category II: Garuda Indonesia, Merpati Nusantara Airlines, Lion Air, Sriwijaya Air Wings Air, Indonesia AirAsia, Mandala Airlines, Pelita Air Service, Riau Airlines, Air Service and Travel Express Aviation Service Trigana. These airlines just on a smaller number of securityRequirements. And for the lower category III, we have: Batavia, Adam Air, Kartika Airlines, Trans Wisata Air, Jatayu Airlines and cargo aircraft Tri MG Intra Asia Airlines and Manunggal Air Service.

Some companies use to proclaim the airlines in the medium category to no idea of the nature of the criteria the government in order to assess the airlines. I must admit that the transparency has never been the strength of this government. Some airlines promised that they willWithout prior notice. At least, this result has strengthened the debate and of course the situation should improve in the future.

Personally, I believe AirAsia, Garuda Indonesia and Merpati to some of the safest, despite the tragic events of Garuda Indonesia last month. For AirAsia, it is not actually a local company as they are in Malaysia, but at least fifteen destinations in Indonesia. And they have the cheapest airline tickets available in Asia.

I hope that thisDo not take articles, her curiosity for travel to Indonesia. Than seven years in Jakarta immigrants, I advise you to consider this destination for your next trip. Indonesia is still one of the few countries in the world where you can find such a variety of cultural and Panorama in the same place.
