According to a statement from the airline's official website, BBN Airline operates from the strategically located Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, which serves as a crucial hub for its customers across Indonesia and the Asia-Pacific region. 

The airline emphasizes reliable and efficient air transport services and is committed to delivering a seamless customer experience.

BBN Airline demonstrated its readiness to expand its presence in Indonesia by securing the necessary regulatory approvals. In 2023, the airline obtained an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) from the Directorate of Airworthiness and Aircraft Operation, a division of Indonesia’s Ministry of Transportation. 

This certification was pivotal in allowing BBN Airline to launch its operations in the country.

In addition to the AOC, the airline recently received a commercial passenger air operation certificate from Indonesia’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation. 

This certificate further establishes the airline’s credibility and commitment to providing high-quality commercial flight services to passengers.
