Just got back from Indonesia. Flown with GA AMS-DXB-CGK and found them to be EXCELLENT. Really. Crew, food, seats, IFE... all better than MH and certainly 4 star. Can't wait for the 77W's and Skyteam membership.
Reason for CGK having 2 security checks is probably connections. If you're connecting from let's say DPS (own experience) you aren't bothered with the pre-check in security thus have to have one at the gate.
I also stayed at Le Meridien Jakarta and found it also great. Breakfast was really the most extensive I've ever had.

I'm thinking of doing a TR on the trip if I find the time for 5 flights and 20 days of hotels and tours!

Thanks for the TR so far. ^
