As part of Indonesia’s final major promotional activity of 2025, the ‘Wonderful Indonesia Business Matching’ event has been organised in Delhi by the Ministry of Tourism Indonesia and the Indonesian Embassy in Delhi. 23 Indonesian tourism suppliers, including hotels, travel services, and hospitality brands, participated in building deeper collaboration with the Indian travel trade. Addressing the event, Erwin Muhammad Akbar, Minister Counsellor (Economic), Embassy of Indonesia in New Delhi, said, “India ranks within the top five international visitor markets to Indonesia, underlining its growing importance for the country’s tourism strategy.” He said, “The Ministry of Tourism aims to attract 740,000 Indian travellers this year, pushing aggressive promotions in the final months to meet the target. The introduction of e-visa on arrival has eased travel, and we hope to include India in our upcoming free-visa list to boost visitor growth further.” “Direct flights currently link Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru to Bali and Mumbai to Jakarta, with a Delhi–Jakarta service likely to be announced shortly,” he stated and added that from Bali, Yogyakarta and Lombok to Labuan Bajo and Lake Toba, the country promotes varied experiences including wellness, ecotourism, culture, and adventure.

Speaking at the launch of Centrum Air’s new flight, connecting Delhi and Tashkent from 3 October, Sardor Mirzayusupovich Rustambaev, Ambassador of Uzbekistan to India, said that the improved air connectivity has already boosted tourism four-fold, from 20,000 Indian visitors to nearly 82,000 in one year, with expectations of even higher numbers this year. Aeroprime Group is Centrum Air’s exclusive GSA in India. Expressing optimism, Rustambaev said that new routes will further strengthen cooperation, tourism, and people-to-people contact. He stressed that these flights would benefit tourism, education, medical travel, and overall bilateral engagement.
