Yogyakarta Airport Mini Guide

Who Flies to Yogyakarta?
It’s one of the biggest tourist destinations on Java and for good reason. Those who wish to immerse themselves in the history and culture of Java will be well catered for whilst thrill seekers can ascend the slopes of Mount Merapi, an active volcano that killed over 350 people in an eruption two years ago. Javan culture in Yogyakarta means fine art, theatre and the Indonesian puppet shows. There’s always something going on so you won’t miss out.

How do I get to Yogyakarta Airport?
There are no direct flights from outside south eastern Asia so for travellers from far away you’ll need to make a connection through either Denpasar on Bali with Garuda Indonesia or through Singapore with Indonesia AirAsia. From the airport it’s only a ten minute drive into the city.

What is the Airport Like?
It’s big and crowded, serving over four million passengers a year and has little room for expansion, meaning that in 2016 it will be replaced with a bigger airport nearby. It has a single terminal with a good range of facilities including a small mall of shops which sell duty free goods as well as handicrafts and traditional Indonesian clothing. You can also stock up on books, newspapers and magazines and grab some snacks for your flight. There are three places to eat at the airport, all serving either Indonesian or Asian food and there’s a café which serves excellent coffee. If you need cash, you’ll find a currency exchange facility and some cash machines too.
