Not a good time to come, maybe better later this or even next year.

We enjoyed the JW Marriott next door much more. Not as ornate, but service was much better.

We stayed at the Ritz Mega Kuningan last year. We enjoyed their lounge that was in the Italian restaurant, but the hotel was too big, and service was ok, but not outstanding.

Does anyone know whether there’s a risk to chaining this fare together with something else and transiting through CGK? I could connect onwards to Thailand, for example, but not sure based on the language whether a transit will be permissible with current restrictions. I’m also a bit worried I’d catch heat at some destinations for traveling through Indonesia, even if I just transited through.

Indonesia is now on Thailand's red list, so the Phuket Sandbox scheme isn't available to you so you would have to quarantine in BKK. Transiting CGK could be a bit risky, but I believe you are allowed if the transit is less than 2hrs. Probably not worth the risk of being thrown into 8 days of quarantine however...

Thank you! That's what I assumed, but it's a really nice fare and I was hoping I could justify ignoring common sense and flying through a pandemic epicenter.

it is a great fare, and I've used it recently; it's one of the few Int'l fares that also work in reverse (CGK-NYC rt)
