Penutupan Delapan Bandara Akibat Erupsi Anak Krakatau Diperpanjang
Hatta ditutup hingga Senin (7/9) pukul 08.59 WIB berdasarkan NOTAM A3368/26 NOTAMR A3355/26. Perubahan arah angin pada berbagai lapisan ketinggian membuat sebaran abu sulit diprediksi sehingga keselamatan penerbangan belum dapat dijamin. Pemerintah bersama BMKG melakukan paper test setiap 30 menit di bandara terdampak dan mewajibkan seluruh pesawat menjalani pemeriksaan mesin sebelum beroperasi kembali ketika kondisi telah dinyatakan normal.
