PH counterpart commends innovation to reduce costs and improve delivery services
With the growth of e-commerce due to technology and the Covid-19 pandemic, J&T Express Philippines commended the opening of a new era of aviation courier services by J&T Express Indonesia last March 18 as the latter unveiled at the Budiarto Airport in Tangerang City, Indonesia one of seven all-cargo aircraft dedicated to enhancing the company’s logistics services while reducing transportation costs.
The leased Boeing 737-300 model has a maximum capacity of 15 tons and aims to mainly serve the Jakarta-Medan and Jakarta-Batam-Tanjung Pinang cargo routes, with at least two flights a day. According to the J&T Express Group, the deployment of an all-cargo charter model in Indonesia will greatly reduce air transportation costs, increase air transportation capacity, and establish stable and efficient air transportation services.
Established in 2015, J&T Express helped Indonesia enter the era of same day delivery. J&T Express’ high-end aircraft are loaded and unloaded on the same day, while inter-island express mail except Jawa, are delivered the next day.
