Can I make a 3 hours connection at SUB on an international flight?
3 hours clears the 60-minute international minimum connection time at Juanda, but you should still head directly to your gate. There is no airside walkway between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2; passengers must exit through arrivals, take a curbside shuttle bus or taxi (roughly 3-4 km via the access road), and clear security again at the departure terminal. During peak traffic hours on the surrounding roads this transfer can stretch well past 30 minutes even before re-screening. Connections within the same terminal (T1-T1 or T2-T2) only require walking and a single security check.
How much time do I need for a layover at SUB?
We recommend at least 50 minutes for a comfortable connection at Juanda. This gives you enough buffer for security (typically 15 minutes) and transit between terminals (up to 35 minutes).
What happens if I miss my connection at SUB?
Head to your operating airline's transfer or ticketing counter in the arrival terminal immediately — Garuda Indonesia and Lion Air Group both have staffed counters at Juanda that can rebook missed connections, though options may be limited to the next same-day flight given moderate frequency on many routes.
