All Batik Air Economy Class passengers get to enjoy an in-flight meal service, but the menu varies according to flight routes. For short-haul flights, Batik Air offers a selection of snacks and mineral water, while for long-haul flights, it serves specially prepared meals. Nevertheless, if the passengers of short-haul flights want to enjoy the main dining menu during their flight, they can order and purchase it directly onboard.
The Batik Air Business Class comes with many benefits. Passengers get not only a complimentary baggage allowance of up to 30 kg and a wider seat with a 45-inch (around 114 cm) legroom, but also an exclusive service with a priority check-in counter where they will be assisted by the airline’s personal ambassadors during check-in and at the immigration counter, as well as when they have other concerns. Once the passengers are settled in their Business Class seats, they can enjoy the airline’s in-flight entertainment which offers the most updated list of movies, music, and games, and charge their mobile devices via the provided USB port. Passengers who depart from Terminal 1C of the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport also get access to Batik Air Business Class Lounge.
The Batik Air Business Class in-flight meal consists of a wide array of dishes from snacks to main courses. Some of the snacks, such as pastel and lemper, are what commonly found at an Indonesian traditional market, while the main courses on long-haul flights include signature Indonesian delicacies such as white rice with fried chicken and stir-fry tempeh. Additionally, passengers will get a bowl of salad, a cup of ice cream, and a selection of drinks, from coffee and tea to fruit juices.

The Batik Air flight attendant uniform stays true to its name: batik. The uniform consists of a red and purple-colored jarik (an Indonesian traditional long pencil skirt) with Kang Manado batik pattern from North Sulawesi—a nod to one of the province’s seaside towns—and a white kebaya top. At a glance, the Batik Air flight attendant uniform may look quite simple, but it is actually very elegant and sophisticated.
