Jakarta Flights

Jakarta is the loud, busy, thriving capital of Indonesia and the most populous city in all of Southeast Asia. The city is an absolute melting pot of Asian cultures and is the political, economic, and cultural engine of this island country. Purchase a ticket to Jakarta to explore this up-and-coming tourist destination that has much to offer the eager traveller, including dozens of excellent museums, exquisite food, and a not-so-secret underground nightlife.

One of the most popular tourist destinations in Jakarta is the Merdeka Square, which is considered one of the largest city squares in the world. Here you’ll find the massive 132-metre National Monument. Around the square you’ll also discover the presidential palace, the Istiqlal Mosque, and the National Museum of Indonesia. To really play tourist, head to the Ancol Bayfront City in North Jakarta, where you’ll find Dufan Fantasi theme park and plenty of enticing shopping malls, and some local art markets. Finally, if the noise of the city gets to be too much, escape to one of the small islands that sit just off shore. Many are known for their spectacular diving opportunities.

Best Times to Travel to Newark

Peak Season:

No matter what time of year you visit Jakarta, it’ll be hot and humid. Temperatures usually stay between 28 to 30 degrees Celsius year-round. Looking to avoid the rain? Consider visiting between August and September during dry season when humidity is at its lowest.

Shoulder Season:

If you can’t make it to Jakarta during peak season, then June and July represent the shoulder season when the days are still relatively dry, though the humidity can soar as high as 85 precent.

Off Season:

If you are looking for cheap flights to Jakarta, consider flying in between October and May, the country’s monsoon season. You’ll get plenty of rain, but the wet weather usually doesn’t last the whole day. Just take care; roads can sometimes wash out in lesser developed areas after a hard rain.

Jakarta Airport and Transfer Information

Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK)

Distance: 20 km northwest of city centre

All flights to Jakarta touch down at CGK. This huge airport features three terminals. A free shuttle takes passengers between terminals, but it can sometimes be unreliable, so it’s sometimes more efficient to hire a taxi. Many hotels in Jakarta offer a free shuttle service to and from the airport, so check with your hotel, before hopping on a shuttle bus or flagging down a taxi. You can also hire a car with us in advance at Expedia.com.au, but realize that Jakarta’s traffic, even outside of rush hour, can be legendary.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Jakarta?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Jakarta before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Jakarta?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Jakarta, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
