Route and Flight Schedule at the Airport Hub in East Kalimantan Province with MADAM
Abstract
Arrangements for routes and flight schedules are needed to provide effective and efficient services to passengers using air transportation services, especially in metropolitan areas with two or more airports. The concept is known as the Multi Airport System, which provides the following advantages: (1) reducing density at primary airports while increasing the capacity of regional air transportation systems. (2) Maintaining the quality of services, especially in primary airports, breaks down and reduces the effects of disruptions that may occur in airport operations. (3) Providing alternative travel options for people in the metropolis to minimize the distance and travel time to the airport. (4) Generating economic activities in the surrounding area, such as increased employment, tax revenue, attracting new companies, and others. (5) Reducing the impact of a service monopoly which could appear at any time in a single airport system. The research finds differences in flight frequencies between exiting conditions and simulation at SAMS airport of Sepinggan Balikpapan by using the Multiple Airport Demand Allocation Model (MADAM). In the existing conditions, it is found that there is 82 flights/day while the simulation results show 86 flights/day. There is an error of 4.9%, which means that the frequency of flights needs to be increased four times. Whereas at the APT airport. Pranoto, there is no difference between existing routes and schedules and the simulation results, which are 20 flights/day. It means that in terms of both the landside and airside, the capacity is optimum. Also, the simulation results of the movement of passengers to the APT. Pranoto Airport and SAMS. Sepinggan Airport Balikpapan shows the movement of 176 passengers from the APT. Pranoto Airport to SAMS Sepinggan Airport of Balikpapan. There are several passengers at APT. Pranoto cannot be transported according to route modeling and flight schedules due to the airport's overload capacity.

Introduction
East Kalimantan Province is the fourth largest province in Indonesia, with an area of 127,346.92 km2. In general, topographic conditions in East Kalimantan are hilly with altitudes ranging from 0-2,500 meters above sea level. Astronomically, East Kalimantan (East Kalimantan) is located between 1130 35'31 "- 1190 12'48" East and 20 34'23 "LU - 20 44'14" LS. Based on the results of the 2010 Population Census (SP), the total population in East Kalimantan was 3,047,479 inhabitants. The projected population of East Kalimantan was 3,575,449 people, with a male population percentage of 52.44 percent in 2017. The population growth rate in East Kalimantan in 2017 was 2.12 percent per year (BPS East Kalimantan, 2019) [3].
As a province that has a hilly topography, the mode of air transportation plays an important role in connecting transportation access from one region to another. Determination of candidates for the State Capital in the Province of East Kalimantan has a very significant impact on the air transportation sector in supporting flight operations.
East Kalimantan Province has 12 airports spread across several areas, including three airport hubs, namely AM Airport. Sulaiman Sepinggan (BPN) in Balikpapan, APT. Pranoto Airport (SRI) Sei Siring in Samarinda, and Kalimarau Airport (BEJ) in Berau. BPN and SRI are located in big cities (metropolitan), namely Balikpapan, as an industrial city, and Samarinda, as the Provincial Capital, with a distance of ± 100 Km. Both towns have hinterlands that intersect, causing prospective aircraft passengers to choose which airports can fly them to their destinations (O-D).
Conclusion
The research finds differences in flight frequencies between exiting conditions and simulation at SAMS airport of Sepinggan Balikpapan by using the Multiple Airport Demand Allocation Model (MADAM). In the existing conditions, it is found that there is 82 flights/day while the simulation results show 86 flights/day. There is an error of 4.9%, which means that the frequency of flights needs to be increased four times. Whereas at the APT airport. Pranoto, there is no difference between existing routes and schedules and the simulation results, which are 20 flights/day. It means that in terms of both the landside and airside, the capacity is optimum. Also, the simulation results of the movement of passengers to the APT. Pranoto Airport and SAMS. Sepinggan Airport Balikpapan shows the movement of 176 passengers from the APT. Pranoto Airport to SAMS Sepinggan Airport of Balikpapan. There are several passengers at APT.
