Departure tax (PSC), at Denpasar Bali (DPS) and Yogyakarta (JOG) airports

When flying within Indonesia the airport tax is not included in the ticket price. Instead everyone must pay a departure tax, also known as the Passenger Service Charge, at the airport that may vary from airport to airport. At Denpasar Bali the departure tax for domestic flights is Rp. 40,000. For a return flight you also have to pay departure tax in Yogyakarta. At Yogyakarta the departure tax for domestic flights is Rp. 35,000.

Make sure you have this amount in Rupiahs as the departure tax must be paid at the airport before you proceed to the departures area.

Transport to and from Denpasar Bali to airport Ngurah Rai (DPS)

In terms of transportation, Ngurah Rai is probably the most hassle-free airport in all of south-east Asia. Some hotels organise free transfers from the airport, but there are plenty of public taxis also available: go to the ticketing booth, on the right side just after the exit, buy a fixed-fare ticket and a driver will be assigned to you trouble-free. If you are travelling on a restricted budget, you can flag down a Blue Bird Taxi from outside the airport. Blue Bird Taxis are safe and reliable, and their metered fares are marginally cheaper than the prepaid taxi fares.

If you do make the effort to walk outside the airport to the street, you can flag down a bemo (local minivan). Most of the bemos in this area will be heading to Kuta, but don't absolutely bank on it, and be prepared for a hot, crowded journey.

Transport to and from Yogyakarta to airport Adi Sutjipto (JOG)

Although Yogyakarta International Airport has several public transportation options, the close proximity to the city centre makes a taxi relatively cheap. The airport is the only airport in Indonesia with a railway station where commuter trains to the Yogyakarta Tugu central station (conveniently near the Jl. Sosrowijaya tourist centre) and to Solo (Surakarta) will stop. The train to Tugu station will depart about every hour in the day time, last train is at 19:44. The train ticket is only Rp 9000

Alternatively you can take a bus: air-conditioned TransJogja busses depart in front of the train station to several destinations in Jogja. Take the underpass to get to either the train station or bus stop.

Taxis can be booked at the taxi stand outside the domestic arrivals. Most destinations can be reached for the fixed price of Rp 60.000. You need to pay at the counter then proceed to the taxis and give your receipt to the driver. Alternatively, you can walk outside to the main road (Jalan Solo): cross the railroad track and continue for another 200 meters and turn left. Around the corner several taxis will be waiting and they will always use the meter making a journey into the city cost around Rp 30.000 to 40.000
