More proof you Kiwis are an hour behind the rest of us. 
I am often intrigued as to WHERE many 3 letter airport codes originated. Excluding Canada which is its own unique little Alphabet soup, where on earth would CGK have originated - does anyone know?.
It must have been an airport since the 1930s (or even earlier), so would have have a pretty good choice of letters. Whether you spell it Jakarta or Djakarta neither looks close to CGK.

(quoted as 3-60days) has been available for a while. YMMV AU$=1.219 $SG
At $AU500 they might eventually convince me to spend a weekend in SIN.
