However, AirNav Indonesia recorded a decline in Indonesian domestic traffic of 17.5% in 2019 where LOP also decreased by 19.3% compared to 2018 due to the soaring costs of domestic airline tickets in the aviation industry. Significant growth is expected to continue in the short to medium term with passenger demand expected to exceed 5.29 mppa by 2023.
In addition, the Mandalika Special Economic Zone (SEZ) development program launched by the Government is also an opportunity to make Lombok a leading tourist destination in Indonesia and will require the role of Lombok - Praya International Airport as its supporting facilities.
