BANYUWANGI, KOMPAS.com – PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry Ketapang-Gilimanuk menyarankan pemudik untuk memesan tiket secara online. This is to avoid the accumulation of vehicles in the Ketapang Port area, Banyuwangi, East Java, as well as in Gilimanuk Harbor, Jembrana, Bali.
“Tentu kalau dilakukan pemesanan tiket via online maka tidak akan menumpuk panjang di loket,” kata Direktur Keuangan PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry Junia Satriawan, Wednesday (19/4/2023).
According to Junia, Ferry ticket booking system via online can be done through the Ferizy application. The time span is quite long, can order 60 the day before the crossing time.
“Masyarakat yang akan pulang kampung maupun nanti yang akan balik bisa memanfaatkan layanan ini,” ujar Junia.
Junia added, These early ticket reservations are actually made for mutual convenience, namely between the passenger and the operator.
“Dari penumpang bisa menghindari antrean. From the operator's point of view, for example, you know faster what date the reservation is, how many two-wheeled vehicles or four-wheeled vehicles. And so on," he said.
Junia explained, currently travelers tend to buy tickets a few hours before departure.
“Kalau terjadi lonjakan yang signifikan, ASDP is not easy to take steps to anticipate or follow up,” ucap Junia.
So therefore, ASDP Ketapang Gilimanuk advises travelers to take advantage of online ticket services through the website www.ferizy.com or the Ferizy application.
"Because in the vicinity of the port, it will no longer be possible to sell tickets, it's getting closer go show,” terang Junia.
