Flights to Jakarta (JKT)
Jakarta is Indonesia’s vast capital and the main gateway to the archipelago — most visitors pass through rather than stay, though the old Dutch quarter of Kota Tua rewards a day.
It is the connection point for Bali, Yogyakarta, Komodo and Sumatra, and the traffic is genuinely as bad as its reputation, so plan generously between the airport and the city.
