Great TR! I have to say your photos are all composed very well and very clear too. Thank you.

Amazing that GA still finds time to serve meal on a short 35 - 40 mins flight between TKG and CGK. I have been very impressed with this airlines since the transformation happened.

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. ^
Please do share your TR. Would love to read it. Not intending to hijack this TR but you can PM me if you would like to read my TR on my GA's flight from SIN to AMS in C and back in July this year.

On a side note, I do hope you could post a review of it, would love to read it, since I had some really excellent flights on GA too between CGK and DPS!
NRT is the same as HKG as well.
