Airlines like Thai Airways and Garuda Indonesia offer nonstop services with similar flight times." }, "q1": { "question": "Are there any direct flights from Jakarta to Bangkok?", "answer": "Yes, there are nonstop flights from Jakarta (CGK) to Bangkok (BKK). Three airlines serve the route: Thai Airways (TG) with 28 weekly flights, Garuda Indonesia (GA) with 11 weekly flights — both daily — and Ethiopian Airlines (ET) with 8 weekly flights on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.

If you are a Thai citizen, you can enter Indonesia for tourism without a visa for up to 30 days under the visa exemption.

Public buses serve routes like Khao San Road and Don Mueang Airport for THB 35–60. Premium options include AOT Limousine and self-drive car rentals on Level 2.
