Lining up Jakarta's skyscrapers along the CBD with Wisma 46 as the centerpiece. Wisma 46 is designed by Zeidler Partnership and has been well-known for being Indonesia's tallest building; and Jakarta's most distinguished skyscrapers with its unique shape resembling an elegant fountain pen. Singapore may have a "Durian" (The Esplanade); and Beijing has a "Bird's Nest" (Olympic Stadium) and "Trousers Pants" (CCTV Tower); but Jakarta has an elegant "Fountain Pen". Although it may not be the tallest building in Indonesia now, -with the completion of Menara BCA and The Kempinski Residences at the Grand Indonesia Mall complex; and construction at The Jakarta Tower (558m) is coming soon-, Wisma 46 remains one of the nation's most distinguished and unique building.

The journey

What the journey looks like

Direct or connecting, how far the route really runs, and what happens when a connection is missed.

Direct or connecting
60% of the services we sell on this corridor run through without a change. The remaining 40% involve one connection.
How far it really runs
The route covers 132 km against 115 km in a straight line, a detour of 15 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
Where the change is
Connections are made at Cikampek, Karawang, Purwakarta, Cianjur. The gap between arriving and leaving is 46 minutes, of which about 5 is walking.
If the connection is missed
The tightest connection we sell here has a 20 percent chance of not being made on the timetable alone. Part of this journey is a self transfer between separate tickets, so leave more time than the minimum and expect to check in again.

Jakarta is large, and the road in from CGK can take longer than the last hour of the flight. Cars are not our business.

Where these numbers come from

Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance on this page are real and come from open data. Where a corridor has a filed timetable the departure times are real too, and ferry fares are the prices the operators publish themselves.

Derived from service area No carrier record names this exact pair. The operators listed publish a service area covering both places at a distance their mode plausibly carries people, which is evidence that the corridor is served and not evidence of a specific service. Pages state which, because presenting the two as the same thing would be dishonest.

Where no operator publishes a fare for a corridor, the price here is our own estimate, worked out from the real distance and the real operator through a fare curve that follows lead time, day of the week and season. It tells you roughly what the journey costs. It is not a seat anyone has agreed to sell, and the payment step will not take it.

The return direction is computed separately and its numbers are not these numbers.
