Soekarno-Hatta International Airport

Soekarno-Hatta International Airport is about 20 to 25 km northwest of central Jakarta. By road the trip takes around 45 minutes in light traffic, but it can exceed two hours during the morning and evening rush. The airport train reaches BNI City station in central Jakarta in about 45 minutes and is not affected by road traffic.

Not quite. The airport sits in Tangerang, in Banten province, just outside the Jakarta city boundary near Cengkareng in West Jakarta. That is why it is often called Cengkareng airport. It is the main international airport for the Jakarta metropolitan area, while Halim Perdanakusuma Airport in East Jakarta handles a smaller number of domestic flights.

Soekarno-Hatta has three passenger terminals. Terminal 1 handles domestic flights, Terminal 2 serves Lion Air group carriers and several international low-cost airlines, and Terminal 3, the largest, is used by Garuda Indonesia and most full-service international airlines. A free Skytrain links all three terminals and the airport rail station.

Garuda Indonesia, Pelita Air, TransNusa, Scoot and most full-service foreign airlines use Terminal 3. Lion Air and Citilink domestic flights use Terminal 1, while Batik Air, AirAsia and other low-cost international carriers use Terminal 2. Terminal assignments changed several times in 2025 and 2026, so check your booking or the airline's website before you travel.

Use the free Skytrain, which connects Terminals 1, 2 and 3 and the airport rail station. Trains run about every five minutes and take about seven minutes from Terminal 1 to Terminal 3. A free shuttle bus also loops between the terminals. Both run landside, so you will clear security again at your departure terminal.

Yes. Official taxis, including Blue Bird, wait at ranks outside each arrivals hall, and a dispatcher assigns the next available car. Taxis are metered, and expressway tolls are paid on top of the fare. Avoid drivers who approach you inside the terminal and walk to the official rank instead.

Yes. The airport rail link runs from the airport station, reached by Skytrain from every terminal, to BNI City in central Jakarta in about 45 minutes, with some trips continuing to Manggarai. Trains run roughly every 30 minutes from early morning to late evening. BNI City connects with the MRT, LRT and Transjakarta buses.

Yes. Grab and Gojek both operate at Soekarno-Hatta from designated pickup zones that are signposted after you leave arrivals. At Terminal 3 the pickup area is on the ground floor of the parking building. Check the app for the exact pickup point for your terminal before you request a ride.

All arriving travelers must complete the All Indonesia arrival card, which combines the immigration, customs and health declarations, within three days before landing and keep its QR code for customs. You also need a valid visa if your nationality requires one. Many visitors can apply online for an e-VOA or buy a visa on arrival at the airport.

Bali is reached by a direct domestic flight from Soekarno-Hatta to I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar. Garuda Indonesia, Lion Air, Batik Air, Citilink, Pelita Air and TransNusa all fly the route, which is the busiest at Bali airport. Check whether your flight leaves from Terminal 1, 2 or 3.

Jakarta uses Western Indonesia Time (UTC+7) all year, with no daylight saving time. The currency is the Indonesian rupiah, and ATMs and money changers are available in the arrivals halls. The climate is hot and humid year-round, with the rainy season running roughly from November to March.

The airport is operated by InJourney Airports, the state-owned company that took over from Angkasa Pura II. Soekarno-Hatta handled about 55 million passengers in 2025, more than any other airport in Indonesia. It opened in 1985 and has three runways and three passenger terminals.
