Cheap Flights from Jakarta to Beijing Starting at $164

Jakarta is served mainly by Soekarno–Hatta International Airport (CGK), the country’s primary international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers alongside some low-cost airlines. Located about 20–30 km northwest of central Jakarta, travel times can range from 45 minutes to 2+ hours depending on traffic; options include the airport rail link (around 45–60 minutes, moderate fares), taxis and app-based ride-hailing (30–90 minutes, fares vary), and shuttle buses (longer but cheaper). CGK offers wide connectivity and airport amenities but can feel busy and subject to congestion during peak periods. For domestic and budget-focused connections, Halim Perdanakusuma Airport (HLP) sits closer to the city (roughly 15 km east) and typically serves domestic, business and some regional flights; road transfers tend to be quicker from central districts (20–60 minutes) though options are mostly taxis and ride-hailing. HLP can be more convenient for time-sensitive transfers or business travelers but has fewer long-haul amenities and limited ground-transport variety.

Beijing Capital International (PEK) is the city’s traditional international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers such as Air China, with many long-haul and regional connections; it typically feels like the pricier, full-service option for international travelers. Located about 32 km northeast of the city center, it’s accessible by the Airport Express train (~20–30 minutes to Dongzhimen), taxis (~40–60 minutes depending on traffic) and airport buses (~45–75 minutes); public transit fares generally range from modest metro fees to taxi fares that can be substantially higher in peak traffic. Pros: extensive international facilities and many airline choices; Cons: can be crowded and transfer times may be long during peak periods. Beijing Daxing International (PKX) opened as a large, modern hub positioned to relieve capacity and attract both full-service and budget carriers; it can be a competitive alternative for international and domestic flights, sometimes offering lower fares on certain routes. Situated roughly 46 km south of downtown Beijing, connections include the high-speed rail link to the city center (~20–40 minutes to the southern transport hub), express buses and taxis (usually 45–90 minutes depending on traffic); fares vary by mode but rail tends to be the most time-efficient and cost-effective. Pros: modern facilities and streamlined transfers; Cons: greater distance to central Beijing and potentially longer taxi rides if traffic is heavy.
