Pelni liners such as the KM Tillongkabila, state-run Sabuk Nusantara pioneer (perintis) freighters and local ferries all call at Luwuk, capital of the Banggai Regency in Central Sulawesi. The port mainly handles passengers, supply runs and regional breakbulk between Sulawesi and the offshore Banggai Islands, with ferries running to Banggai and Salakan several times a week. Luwuk has no international container line; larger box volumes and customs clearance go through Pantoloan near Palu or Bitung in North Sulawesi. For island and regional supply, though, it remains a dependable call. Road links serve the surrounding area, complemented by Bubung airport.
