To Travel in Indonesia (Air Edition)

Travelling never as compelling as challenging as in indonesia. It is always a pleasant experience for sure, wondering the beautiful country. Many places to visit, many mountains to climb, and many journey to enjoy.

But when it comes to the transportation system, welcome to the world of multiple painkiller. You need a dozen painkiller to reduce the pain in your back, hand, head, stomach, and most importantly your heart. Let me tell you why you need such a medication, this time when you travel by air.

First, the domestic flight is usually late. Ranging from half an hour to unlimited. Make sure to bring a book, mp3 player, or a partner to talk to.

Second, people loves to dislike queing. As long as they can check in first, they will do anything. Suck!

Third, baggage stuff. Becareful not to say yes when someone offer you to wrap your bag. It is truly a protection system, yes. But notice that wrapping system is better for long-range flight which acquire you a transit somewhere in the journey. For example, if you travel to batam or any other part in indonesia outside java island from small airport like in solo or Yogyakarta, you will most likely make transit in Jakarta. Or vice versa. But for one direct flight with a range of an hour, better keep it wrap with yellow band. You can find the counter near check in desk, usually.

And notice that wrapping system is not obligatory. It is your choice! Just make sure that your bag is securely locked, here and there.

Fourth, if you are travelling with heavy luggage, you can always ask for a porter help. It just that you need to pay them a good fee.

Fifth, if you are a kind of people who easy to get hungry, make sure to have something to eat before the flight. Most domestic flight doesn't have in flight food service.

Sixth, be open and kind hearted. usually you gonna meet a person you already know or the person next to you will become your friend after the end of the flight. So much Indonesian.

Seventh, never turn on your phone literally a second after the plane touch down. It is forbidden! As the navigation system is still working. But Indonesian never seems to learn that.. So be patient when you heard a welcome sound of cellphone or even sound of incoming calls from many other passengers. Tell them the truth, if you wish. I told many already, but no one seems to care. Well, just start from ourself then.

Okay then.. I guess that's it for today. Good day and have a pleasant journey, everybody ^_^
