The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation.

Car rentals are available but are generally not recommended due to heavy traffic and challenging driving conditions. The most used option for visitors is Grab, which offers fixed fares and avoids the common taxi scams.
