AirAsia Indonesia Moves HQ

AirAsia Indonesia has moved its headquarters to a new office building.

Located near Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, Tangerang, the building is home to more than 2,000 employees who were previously scattered in different offices throughout Jakarta.

The building is equipped with facilities such as a gymnasium, music studio, employee lounge, mosque and a rooftop café.

The building has been designed to be eco-friendly with a good waste and light management system. For example, during day time, the building makes the most of natural lighting which enables AirAsia Indonesia to significantly reduce electricity consumption.

AirAsia Group CEO, Tony Fernandes, said, “I am proud to be part of this historic moment, which marks a significant achievement and milestone for AirAsia Indonesia. From its humble beginnings with two old Boeing 737-300s, AirAsia Indonesia now operates a total of 30 brand new Airbus A320 and employs more than 2,000 employees. I have no doubt that our unconventional office and fun workspace will stimulate minds as well as inspire creative ideas.”

Standing on 6,497 square meters of land, the office was designed by Dedato, a prominent Indonesian architect.

Covering an area of 11,200 square meters, the six-floor office building is also home to AirAsia asean previously located at Equity Building, SCBD, South Jakarta.

AirAsia Indonesia CEO Dharmadi said the new office reflects AirAsia Indonesia’s fun personality and demonstrates the airline’s commitment to provide the best for its employees.

“AirAsia Indonesia currently employs more than 2,000 employees throughout Indonesia, an increase of 395% compared to 2005 when the airline began its operations. With the opening of the new office building, AirAsia Indonesia hopes to foster creativity, improve synergies between departments as well as enhance communication effectiveness among employees,” said Dharmadi.

The office is expected to be in full operation by February 2014.
