Jakarta Airport: is there a good exchange rate? help!

at terminal 2 there are 3 small exchange booths side by side in the hall where is also a left luggage. Depends which door you get out you have to look from one end to the other. Last year the rate was almost the same as on oanda.com.

I will be at International Airport (flight from Europe). Thanks for your news.

Check the rate here: www.centralkutabali.com or www.balibestrate.com & then bargain with the money changers at the airport for this rate. You're changing a reasonable amount & the airport forex will not want to lose out. Another forum member here advised me years ago.

As #1. You need to weave in and out of the various entrances/exits of Terminal 2 to locate the exchange booth which offers the best rate.
Are you arriving at Terminal 2 and transitting directly from your international arrival to your domestic departure?
With EUR 2,000 you can bargain a bit.

I don't know in wich Terminal I will be at International Airport because I will buy the ticket in some days. But I can tell you my flight will arrive from Europe and will go to West Papua (it is indonesia island). I think it will be a domestic departure.

All Garuda domestic & international routes now use Terminal 3. A few international airlines have also moved to T3.

What I ask is not what is the exance rate at Airport. Only I ask what is the differences (around)of exanche rate between Airport and out of Airport.

The difference depends on your bargaining skills. I can get a good rate because I bargain. If you don't know the going rate, how can you bargain successfully.

There is a Bank Mandiri branch at Terminal 3 where you'll probably get a better rate than with other moneychangers.
