Jakarta is served mainly by Soekarno–Hatta International (CGK), the country's primary international hub, and Halim Perdanakusuma (HLP), which typically handles some domestic and VIP flights. Soekarno–Hatta is the larger, full-service airport used by major carriers and full-service international airlines; fares from CGK can feel competitive for long-haul flights but may be pricier than budget options. It sits about 20–30 km northwest of central Jakarta, with train or airport shuttle taking roughly 30–60 minutes (trains ~IDR 70–100k, taxis/ride-hail variable), while airport buses and taxis are common alternatives. Pros: extensive international connections and modern terminals; cons: traffic to/from the city and busy peak crowds. Halim is much closer to downtown (about 8–12 km), often used for domestic or private flights and sometimes lower-cost regional services; travel time can be 20–40 minutes by taxi or ride-hail depending on traffic. Pros: convenience and quicker transfers for eastern Jakarta; cons: fewer international options and more limited ground transport links compared with CGK.
Kuala Lumpur is served mainly by Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL), a major international hub handling full-service and many low-cost carriers, and the smaller Subang Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB), which typically focuses on turboprops, regional flights and some business charters. KUL is about 45–60 km from the city center; the KLIA Ekspres train usually takes around 28 minutes to KL Sentral, with fares typically in the mid-range for airport rail, while taxis or ride-shares can take 45–60 minutes depending on traffic and may be more cost-effective for groups. SZB lies much closer, around 20 km, with taxis taking 30–45 minutes and local buses offering cheaper but slower options. Pros: KUL offers wide connectivity and good ground links; SZB can be quicker for regional travellers. Cons: KUL transfer times and costs can be higher, and road traffic can add variability to taxi journeys.
