Ditch the Plane, Double the Adventure, The Ultimate Java Road Trip Guide

Hey there, fellow travelers! If you’re planning a trip to Indonesia, you’ve probably noticed that domestic flight prices can be a bit on the steep side. You might be wondering why that is. Well, let’s dive into it a bit before we explore an amazing alternative that will give you a richer experience of this beautiful country.

Why Are Domestic Flight Prices So High in Indonesia?

Why Are Domestic Flight Prices So High in Indonesia

Domestic flight prices in Indonesia can be surprisingly high due to a variety of hidden costs. Experts point out several factors that contribute to this. First, there’s the 11% Value Added Tax (VAT) which is a significant chunk of change. Then, there’s the mandatory insurance fee from Jasa Raharja, and don’t forget the airport fees, known as PJP2U.

But wait, there’s more! Airports also tack on additional fees for fuel distribution, known as throughput fees. And if you’re flying out of a military airbase like Halim Perdana Kusuma or Juanda, you might face double charges from both the airport authorities and the military.

So, with all these extra costs, it’s no wonder flying within Indonesia can burn a hole in your pocket. But don’t worry, we’ve got an exciting solution for you. This is an amazing alternative that not only saves you money but also gives you an unforgettable adventure: Java road trip!
