PT Pelita Air Service

Airlines and AviationIndonesia501-1000 Employees

In 1963, as a result of growing operational needs, an air service department was established within Pertamina called Pertamina Air Service. Seven years later (1970), Pertamina established PT. Pelita Air Service (PAS) – closing the doors on air division of Pertamina – through the establishment of an autonomous subsidiary to provide continuous flight operations.

Defining the company as a commercial air carrier, PAS was given a mission of performing flight operations in the broadest sense of the world, to economically serve and coordinate flight operations within the oil and gas industry in Indonesia by way of charter flights and related activities. This includes:

- Transmigration
- Fire Fighting
- Refugees
- Red Cross
- Oil Spills
- Aerial Photo
- Cargo Transportations

On the back of a long tradition, successful track record and expertise, PAS obtained financial independence from Pertamina (1981) to increase its competitiveness beyond the domestic commercial aviation industry and compete internationally. Today, PAS extended world-class services are :

VVIP
Offshore
External Load such as banner and short/long sling line
Medical Evacuation
Seismic Operation
Geological Survey
Helirig
Helicopter Pilots For Hire
Support and Training

Being more than 45 years of solid experience since 1970 with many types of airplanes and services supporting its business, has given PAS a well-deserved repute among the users of its services to be able to compete and stay outstand. For these reasons, PAS has continually trusted to render its services to the President and other dignitaries of the nation. Trying to expand another line of business, we had experienced the regular flight since 2000 until 2005, for many routes across the country. In order to be more focus in our main business, then we decided to concentrate in air flight charter by shutting down the regular flight.
