Airlines on this route

AirAsia operates HKT-CGK as a low-cost service, alongside Indonesia AirAsia (ID) on the same low-cost model. The base fare is lean, with checked baggage and meals priced separately — the route is built for short regional trips and rewards travellers who add only what they need. Both serve Jakarta directly.

THB fares

As a short regional route flown by low-cost carriers, HKT-CGK is among the cheaper international links from Phuket. School holidays in Indonesia and the Thai high season lift demand, when booking a month or so ahead helps. For ordinary dates, two to four weeks of lead time is often enough for a low economy fare in THB, especially with cabin baggage only.

About Jakarta

Jakarta is Indonesia’s capital and largest city — a vast, fast-growing metropolis and the country’s commercial and political centre, set on the north coast of Java. It is more of a business and transit city than a tourist one, with the old town of Kota Tua and a deep food scene as its main draws. For Thai travellers it is most often a business stop or a gateway onward to Bali and the rest of Indonesia.
