Location

Kertajati, Indonesia

Kertajati International Airport (KJT/WICA) is a large international airport located in Majalengka Regency, West Java, Indonesia. It was developed to serve as an alternative to the congested Husein Sastranegara Airport in Bandung and to support economic development in the Ciayumajakuning region, which encompasses Cirebon, Indramayu, Majalengka, and Kuningan. The airport was built on a large land area and was designed with significant capacity in mind, though it struggled with low passenger volumes after opening due to its relatively remote location and limited connectivity. A completed toll road link was identified as critical to improving accessibility from Bandung and surrounding cities. After a period of underutilization, the Indonesian government made efforts to transfer domestic routes from Husein Sastranegara Airport to Kertajati in order to boost traffic and justify the airport's scale. The airport has capacity for both domestic and international operations.

Terminals

The airport has a single main passenger terminal building designed to handle both domestic and international flights.

Getting to & from

Access to the airport is primarily by road, with a toll road connection to Bandung and surrounding areas being key to improving ground transport links.
