Sufficient layover time between Jakarta international and domestic flights?
I arrive at 7:30 AM Sunday via Singapore Airlines, need to clear immigration/customs, use an ATM, and transfer terminals for a 10:55 AM Lion Air/Super Air Jet flight. Feasible? ATM and 30-day SIM car… more
That's cutting it close. Soekarno-Hatta is HUGE. Allow at least 2 hours, maybe more on a Sunday, for immigration, customs, and terminal transfer, especially with an ATM stop thrown in. You'll likely be sprinting. For ATMs, any major bank ATM (BCA, BNI, Mandiri) will work. They're everywhere. For a SIM card, Telkomsel is generally reliable. Look for a booth in the arrival hall – you'll see them. Plenty of options for 30-day plans. Just be prepared for the potential language barrier; have your phrasebook ready or use Google Translate. Good luck!
Yeah, two hours sounds about right, maybe even push it to 2.5 just to be safe. Soekarno-Hatta is a beast, I've been stuck there a few times. Never underestimate the sheer volume of people. Good call on the ATM tip – those queues can be brutal. And the SIM card advice is spot on; Telkomsel's pretty much the standard. Definitely bring a phrasebook or have your phone charged up for Google Translate, though - I ended up using hand gestures and a lot of pointing more than once!
