i would love to see more videos like this where its shows real life experience, not people roaming on the roads after they are already reached their destination, Good work bro
I’m desperate to travel again, but so much rigmarole! I hope you enjoy being back in Indonesia. I’ve got a soft spot for Jakarta, well apart from the traffic!
Regulasi selama pandemi memang sangat melelahkan apalagi anda dari luar negeri tentu regulasi sangat ketat,jangan lupa pakai selalu masker selama diluar ruangan dan berinteraksi dg orang demi keselamatan kita bersama ,enjoy Indonesia 🙏
I am from Pakistan next 20 days I am going to Indonesia on vacation with my family don't know what's going to happen to me on the line but so excited to come to Indonesia 🇵🇰❤️
Very informative video mate. I'm thinking of going to Jakarta next month on a B211a visa. But I don't understand which quarantine I'll have to do; 3d 2n or 5d 4n. I'm fully jabbed and a UK passport holder. Any advice mate? Thanks
It’s the 3d 2n one. At least at the moment. But I thought it was 3n and you get out on the morning of d4. Things change quickly. It’s definitely not the 5d4n one I did. That changed a couple of days after my arrival.
Awesome video very informative il be going to jakarta aswell next Sunday from London Heathrow what day did u take the pcr test before u got to airport to leave uk I got a pcr booked for next friday at 8am and my flight is at 2 55pm same airline as u qatar airways is that OK?
I flew at 3pm Friday and paid for a same-day PCR test on Thursday at 2pm. So it was ready and printed by the time I checked in for the flight the next day. Qatar is a good airline except when they delay flights!
@@JasonSmartTravel thanks for replying back a complete nightmare my flight from Heathrow left 2 hrs late check in was a snail pace missed my flight to jakarta next one is in 17 hrs quick question is it 2 nights in a hotel quaratine
@@JasonSmartTravel went OK in the end now just found out new rules about coming back to England from next week I leave indonesia on 7th Dec so will have to pay for a pcr test could I use the free gov pcr test?
@@matthewmason80 Sorry, I'm not sure about the PCR tests. But I am heading back to the UK for a few weeks and then, upon my return to Jakarta, have to do the 8-day quarantine! Insane changes.
Do you have a sponsor in Indonesia? My understanding is that Indonesia only opens its borders to citizens from 19 countries (and UK is not on the list). I was informed that currently for UK citizens, we need to have a sponsor in Indonesia.
There is no complimentary food. Maybe there was a free water dispenser somewhere but I didn’t see it. There is a shop - a 7-11-type shop that is always packed. It closes at 9pm so if you arrive in the waiting room after this, then god help you.
You sit and wait for the PCR result. When the person who is guiding you through gets the results, you get a taxi to the hotel. This is what takes ages. The results are sent to the hotel.
Things have changed since last month when I arrived. Now, if you are double vaccinated, you only need to do 2 days quarantine and are released on the morning of day 3. If you only have one vaccination, you need to do 4 days and are released on day 5.
@@JasonSmartTravel 4 years I haven't seen my mum only because I am not so keen doing long quarantine , I heard it used to be much longer than 5 days. 3 days sounds much better, I must soon book my ticket and hotel. Thank for the info , appreciated .👍
@@JasonSmartTravel Cool, that's exactly what I want to do soon. I used to teach english in Vietnam and Korea, came back to the UK to do my PGCE and now ECT programme, hopefully I'll be back teaching and exploring overseas again within the next 2 years. How did you search for jobs? TES? Cheers.
Yes, the checked my paper vaccine and the record on the Indonesian app which you have to get before you leave. It’s what gets you into shopping malls, cinemas etc and, in this case, into the country.

Good luck out there

Must b extraordinary exhausting trip. 24 hours?
It is hellish. And I’m doing it all again in a few weeks - there and back!
is your wife Indonesian? then, how you could get informations about which hotel/apartment for quarantine?
Do you have a sponsor in Indonesia? My understanding is that Indonesia only opens its borders to citizens from 19 countries (and UK is not on the list). I was informed that currently for UK citizens, we need to have a sponsor in Indonesia.
Yes I have a sponsor - my employer
You don't need a sponsor if you are traveling for Tourism.
Did you take a covid vaccination before you go to Jakarta?
Here you just arrive with a negative PCR test and your free to go. no 10 day mandatory hotel stay for 1000 DOLLARS!! No 5 hour wait in the airport.
nice vid Jason! im curious, during 5 hrs in airport, do they provide complimentary food/drinks or are there any food shops ?
There is no complimentary food. Maybe there was a free water dispenser somewhere but I didn’t see it. There is a shop - a 7-11-type shop that is always packed. It closes at 9pm so if you arrive in the waiting room after this, then god help you.
Nice 🙂🙂🙂🙂
hi. is your wife Indonesian? how did you get that apartment/hotel information?
How can we fly like u ?? How can we accumulate airlines,?? Or there is website to buy airmiles ?
Just use the same airline over and over, especially for long flights.
Just curious, did they gave you the pcr test results from airport? How they let you go without the result. How do they inform the result in airport?
You sit and wait for the PCR result. When the person who is guiding you through gets the results, you get a taxi to the hotel. This is what takes ages. The results are sent to the hotel.
Is PCR mandatory when flying with Qatar? At the end of this month I also want to return to Indonesia from Paris
It was mandatory when I flew at the end of October. I assume it still is.
Is a vaccine mandatory?
Are you alowed to come out the room or stay in for full 5 days ?
Things have changed since last month when I arrived. Now, if you are double vaccinated, you only need to do 2 days quarantine and are released on the morning of day 3. If you only have one vaccination, you need to do 4 days and are released on day 5.

What do you do for work Jason?
I work as a teacher in an international school.

@@DanielTeacherUK TES is the best and only one I'd recommend. But there are others, like Search Associates, which some people prefer.

Nick K, but from UK
Did you take a vacin?
were you checked if you were vaccinated?
Yes, the checked my paper vaccine and the record on the Indonesian app which you have to get before you leave. It’s what gets you into shopping malls, cinemas etc and, in this case, into the country.
@@JasonSmartTravel oh really? whats the name of the app?
@@scottweibel2352 peduli lindungi is the app
