Polana assesses that international flights at Yogyakarta’s New Airport will make it easier for foreign tourists, especially to visit tourism objects in Yogyakarta and Central Java as well as umrah flights. He ensured that until now the construction of the Yogyakarta New Airport was still in line with planning. The airport, which in its contract must be completed in July 2020, is targeted to be completed in its entirety and will be operational by the end of 2019. Minister of Transportation (Menhub) Budi Karya Sumadi said a scenario was being prepared so that the airport could support international tourism. "Among them is by preparing road access that passes through the Borobudur Temple area and train access to facilitate transportation of tourists and public passengers," Budi said. Budi said the road access to the north via Sentolo will be made from 20 to 30 kilometers. According to him, this access is very important to support the tourism of Borobudur Temple.
