We were plane to car in maybe 20 minutes and that was with a stop at the restroom and atm included.
Aman does have reps at the airport in addition to the drivers but for departure, they just walk you to security so it's not much of a value added service
Only on the "Undiscovered Indonesia" rate (where it's ~USD 500/night++ for the lead-in category rooms). It's still included in the other rate types.
Edit: On that note, the rates are still quite reasonable though - think it's USD 20 per adult per way, vs Four Seasons which charges USD 40 or 45 or something.
On departure, they get you processed through check-in don't they? They've had us checked in in the past, and recently heard the same from a guest. The initial security check point can be a bit of a hassle and it's great to get through it.
