Juanda International Airport

Juanda International Airport

Juanda International Airport is located just outside Surabaya. Facilities include currency exchange, post office, business centre, tourist information desk, car rental desks and tax free shopping. Fixed price taxis operate from a rank outside the Arrivals terminal, and all major hotels offer mini-bus shuttle transfers or chauffeur-driven meet-and-greet service. Bus service operates between the airport and the Bungurasih bus station. Using the bus is only recommended if your route continues from here to other destinations, and you are planning to continue your journey by bus.

Bemos (small mini-buses) operate on set routes but without a timetable, and leave only when all seats are filled. One of the best ways to see the local environs is to charter a bemo for the day. You can also charter a bemo for a single journey on the same basis, and this can be the most cost effective way of getting around the city.

Two longstanding taxi companies are: Blue Bird Group +62 31 3721234 Orenz Taxi +62 31 8799999
