Which terminal

Yogyakarta International Airport is one of Java's main airports and may have more than one terminal. Check the arrival terminal on their booking or in the airline's app before you set off, and put it in your Greet.

Where to wait

Put the exact spot in your Greet. Your guest sees it on their phone from the moment they land at YIA, even without signal.

  • Inside the arrivals hall, a few metres back from the doors passengers come through.
  • At one landmark you can both name: a numbered exit, a café sign or the information desk.
  • Not right at the barrier, where everyone crowds and nobody can see past the first row.

Passport control and timing

International arrivals go through passport control and customs before the arrivals hall. Domestic flights within Indonesia are usually much quicker.

Java runs on Asia/Jakarta time. The clock at the top of this page shows the local time now.

A local welcome

Want the sign to feel local? "Selamat datang" means welcome in Indonesian. Put it in the line above their name.
