Soekarno–Hatta International Airport (CGK) serves as Jakarta’s main international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers and several regional low-cost airlines. Located roughly 20–25 km northwest of the city center, travel times vary from about 45 minutes to 2 hours depending on traffic; options include the airport rail link (around 30–40 minutes, modest fares), taxis and app-based ride services (30–90+ minutes, fare depends on distance and traffic), and hotel shuttles. Passengers can expect a wide range of facilities and flight choices but should allow extra time in peak hours for longer transfers and immigration queues. This airport is typically perceived as offering broad connectivity and comfort, though transfers can be time-consuming during rush periods. Halim Perdanakusuma International Airport (HLP) functions mainly as a secondary airport serving domestic flights, some regional routes and business charters, and can be a convenient choice for shorter-haul journeys. It sits about 10–12 km east of central Jakarta, so surface travel often takes 20–60 minutes; options are taxis, app-hails and private transfers, with fares generally lower than long-haul airport transfers but variable with traffic. HLP is usually favored for proximity and quicker check-ins on domestic carriers, while it may be more limited in international connectivity and amenities compared with the larger Soekarno–Hatta hub.
