Airlines on this route

Five carriers fly BKK-CGK: Thai Airways and Garuda Indonesia on the full-service side, with Thai AirAsia, Thai Vietjet and Indonesia AirAsia covering the low-cost end. The full-service carriers include checked baggage and a fuller cabin; the low-cost carriers price the base seat low and charge extras separately. Comparing the all-in cost once baggage is added is the practical way to weigh the options on this route.

THB fares

BKK-CGK fares stay competitive given the frequency, rising around the year-end holidays, the Indonesian holiday periods and the Thai school breaks. For those peaks, six to ten weeks of lead time is sensible. Outside them, the low-cost carriers’ early-released fares are the cheapest seats, and three to six weeks usually finds a good THB price. Mid-week departures undercut weekends.

About Jakarta

Jakarta is Indonesia’s capital and the centre of one of the world’s largest metropolitan areas — a sprawling, fast-moving business city rather than a conventional tourist destination. For most travellers from Bangkok it is a place of work and meetings, or a connecting point: Jakarta’s airport feeds onward routes to Bali, Yogyakarta and the wider archipelago. Travellers passing through often build in a short city stay rather than treating Jakarta as the main trip.
