Sriwijaya Air is the country's third largest carrier, operating a fleet of narrow-body aircraft and offers flights to various Indonesian destinations and a few international destinations. The airline is listed as a Category 1 airline by Indonesia's Civil Aviation Authority, the highest status that can be achieved for operational safety. ==History== In 2003, Sriwijaya Air was founded by Chandra Lie, Lie Hendri, Andi Halim and Fandy Lingga, who named it after the historical Srivijaya empire. That same year, on April 28, it obtained its business license, while the AOC (Air Operator's Certificate) was issued later that year on October 28. Sriwijaya Air commenced operations on 10 November 2003, launching flights between Jakarta and Pangkal Pinang, before introducing new routes such as Jakarta-Pontianak and Jakarta-Palembang. In its first year, Sriwijaya Air experienced rapid growth, and by June 2009, Sriwijaya Air operated 23 aircraft, serving more than 33 domestic routes and 2 regional routes. In 2007, Sriwijaya Air received the Boeing International Award for Safety and Maintenance of aircraft, awarded after passing the inspection carried out over a few months. In the same year Sriwijaya Air received Aviation Customer Partnership Award from Pertamina because the airline had assessed the accuracy of petroleum payment. In 2008, Sriwijaya Air was awarded an award by Markplus & Co.. This award is a public appreciation of the services provided by Sriwijaya Air. In August 2015, Sriwijaya Air also achieved BARS (Basic Aviation Risk Standard) Certification that issued by Flight Safety Foundation. Aircraft maintenance is done by PT. ANI (Aero Nusantara Indonesia), AiRod Sdn Bhd and Garuda Indonesia Maintenance Facility (GMF AeroAsia). At the Paris Air Show 2011, Sriwijaya Air announced that they agreed to buy 20 Embraer 190 jets, with purchasing rights for 10 more. However, the airline cancelled its plan to operate the Embraer 190 shortly afterwards, instead deciding to utilize the 737 aircraft it already owned. In 2011, the airline began leasing 12 second-hand Boeing 737-500 with a total value of $84 million to replacing its ageing Boeing 737-200 aircraft, with deliveries taking place between April and December 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sriwijaya Lease Agreement for Boeing jets. )〕 The airline is planning on retire its entire 737 Classic fleet with the Boeing 737-800. It took delivery of 2 such aircraft in 2014,and plans to acquire as many as 15 aircraft in 2015. It took delivery of its first Boeing 737-900ER in August 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sriwijaya Air」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
