We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports.",

The Soekarno-Hatta Airport Rail Link connects to Sudirman Baru (BNI City) and other stations in about 45–55 minutes, and is the most efficient and increasingly popular choice. DAMRI buses and other public buses run to various points in Jakarta but are slower and less comfortable. Taxis are widely available and can be booked at official counters, with trips to central areas taking 60–90 minutes depending on traffic. Ride-share services like Grab and Gojek are popular, offering competitive pricing and convenience, though pick-up points may be designated. Car rentals are available but not recommended for city travel due to severe congestion. Most visitors and locals use ride-share or the airport train to avoid unpredictable traffic."
