REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, KUTA -- Garuda national airline pilots have tightened the operating procedures in which they operate to assure providing the best possible services to passengers during the Idul Fitri or Lebaran holidays, said one of the pilots.
"We don't want to make a mistake. We have to have complete documentation, or else we are not allowed to fly an airplane," senior Garuda pilot Captain Chandra Yuss Ahmad said at Ngurah Rai International Airport here on Saturday.
In the company of co-pilot Adit, Chandra acknowledged that besides having complete documentation, pilots are also required to undergo periodical health examinations at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Jakarta.
"We have to undergo health check ups every six months, and thus I am grateful that I remain in shape," he said after he landed a Boeing 737 aircraft flight GA-402 at Nugurah Rai airport, arriving from Jakarta.
Chandra explained that Garuda airlines crew members have been trained to face every situation, including high flight frequencies, during the Lebaran holidays.
