Kertajati International Airport (KJT/WICA), also known as West Java International Airport, opened in 2018 in Majalengka Regency, West Java. It was built to serve the Bandung metropolitan area and western Java, and since 2023 has taken over most scheduled commercial flights from Bandung’s Husein Sastranegara Airport. The airport has a large modern terminal and a 3,000-meter runway, with road access via the Cipali and Cisumdawu toll roads.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors pre-arrange return transport before landing, because public buses and ride-hailing may not reliably serve late-night or delayed flights. Also confirm whether your flight departs from KJT rather than Bandung, as route transfers have caused confusion.
🚖 Getting There
The airport is connected mainly by road; use the Cipali Toll Road via the Kertajati exit or the Cisumdawu Toll Road from Bandung. DAMRI buses and travel/shuttle services link KJT with Bandung, Cirebon, and nearby cities, while taxis and ride-hailing are available but can be scarce, so pre-book for late arrivals. Allow 1.5–2.5 hours from Bandung depending on traffic.
