Second, those who have special health conditions must attach a doctor's certificate from a government hospital, stating that they have not and/or cannot participate in the Covid-19 vaccination.

Third, flight requirements in remote, outermost, and border areas are adjusted to the conditions of each region. 

Novie said that the passenger capacity for single-aisle aircraft and double aisle aircraft can exceed 70 percent.
