Husein Sastranegara Airport (Indonesian: Bandar Udara Husein Sastranegara, Sundanese: ᮘᮔ᮪ᮓᮁ ᮅᮓᮛ ᮄᮔ᮪ᮒᮨᮁᮔᮞᮤᮇᮔᮜ᮪ ᮠᮥᮞᮨᮄᮔ᮪ ᮞᮞ᮪ᮒᮢᮔᮨᮌᮛ) [1] is an airport in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. It is located within the city and 2.4 km from Bandung Central train station. The site occupies an area of 145ha and serves the area of civil aviation in the south western region of Java. The airfield is conjoined with the Husein Sastranegara air force base of the Indonesian Air Force. Most of the commercial flights operations transferred from this to newly built Kertajati International Airport.
The airport is located in the city of Bandung and is surrounded by mountains, thus the landing approach has unique characteristics. The runway is suitable for aircraft as large as the Boeing 757 and Boeing 767 (200) series and even the Boeing C-17A Globemaster III.[2] The airport provides for a capacity of 3.5 million passengers over an area of .[3] The airport was awarded the best airport in Asia-Pacific in 2020 (2-5 million passengers per annum category) by Airports Council International.[4]
The airport was built in Andir village during the Dutch colonial period. The airport was named Andir Airfield, but is currently named after an Indonesian aviation hero from West Java, Husein Sastranegara. By 2010, the airport was seeing 30 flights per day.
The Bandung Air Show 2010 took place as a major event for the first time at the airport in September 2010, bringing international aviation audiences. In 2012, Bandung Air Show took place again at the airport bringing even more international aviation audiences. It was again held in 2013 and 2015, and is now a biennial event.
Prior to 2016, the airport had an ideal capacity of only 750,000 passengers per year, therefore was running extremely over capacity, under-equipped and under-staffed. Currently the combined old and newly built section of terminal provides capacity of roughly 3.5 million passengers per year when all the 2015-2017 redevelopment are finished.[5] [3]
The airport terminal has two concourses which are used for domestic and international flights. The area of the terminal is 17000m2 over three floors.
There are two executive lounges, Internet access, LED displays, a prayer room, coffee/tea shops, restaurants, bookstore, shopping arcades and ATMs.
On the north side of the runway, there are airport facilities owned by PT Dirgantara Indonesia. Moreover, the airport is also equipped with PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator) and VOR (VHF omnidirectional range), devices that help planes to land at night and other navigation tools.
Since 1 February 2009, international-flight passengers are required to pay an airport tax of IDR 75,000, while domestic flight passengers are required pay an airport tax of IDR 25,000.[6]
PT Angkasa Pura II, as the airport operator, had targeted at mid-year 2010, for the airport runway to be thickened from Pavement Classification Number (PCN) 37 cm to PCN 52 cm, to accommodate larger narrowbody aircraft, such as the Airbus A320neo, Boeing 737 MAX, and Bombardier CRJ1000 NextGen.[7] As of April 2011, the 2250adj=midNaNadj=mid runway overlay was less than 50-percent complete, although an Airbus A320 has landed.[8]
The airport is located at the end of Pajajaran Street where taxis are widely available. Some hotels in Bandung provide free airport transfer services and car rental also is available. The airport has carpark facilities which can accommodate hundreds of cars.[9]
