7 ways to find cheaper domestic flights in Indonesia

1. Set price alerts

Prices change daily. Set a price alert on LAPAKTiket.com and we'll tell you when your route drops.

2. Be flexible by a day

Tuesday and Wednesday departures are often cheaper than Friday and Sunday.

3. Book 3 to 6 weeks ahead

For most domestic routes, this is the sweet spot between early-bird and last-minute prices.

4. Avoid holiday peaks

Lebaran, Christmas, and school holidays push fares up. Travel a week before or after if you can.

5. Compare nearby airports

Flying into Halim instead of Soekarno-Hatta, or Yogyakarta International instead of Solo, can save money.

6. Check baggage costs

A low fare without baggage may cost more in the end. Compare the total price for your needs.

7. Save trips to compare

Use the heart icon to save options and compare them side by side before you decide.
