On August 9, 2016 the new Terminal 3 Ultimate of Soekarno Hatta Airport, Jakarta, Indonesia was officially operated. Covering an area of around 331 metersquare, the airport serves the domestic flights only of national flag carrier Garuda Indonesia.
By the first quarter of 2017, the Terminal 3 Ultimate is expected to completely operate and serve all international flights.
Some constructions are still on-going in this five-floor, modern glass building. In 2017, Terminal 3 Ulitmate will serve 25 million passengers per year, which is double from the current 12 million.
Previously Garuda Indonesia served its domestic flight passengers at Terminal 2F. Now, all domestic flights of Garuda Indonesia are served at Terminal 3 Ultimate.
