Fly Singapore to Yogyakarta
Scoot flies direct from Singapore Changi (SIN) to Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA) — approximately 1 hour 40 minutes, fares from ~$50–100 USD. Note: Yogyakarta has two airports — the new Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA) in Kulon Progo, about 45 km west of the city, and the older Adisucipto (JOG) which is closer but handles fewer flights. If flying to YIA, take the dedicated Bandara YIA train to Wojo station (~25 minutes, ~IDR 20,000) then connect to Yogyakarta Tugu station (~10 minutes). Alternatively, taxi direct from YIA to the city center takes ~45–60 minutes (~IDR 150,000–200,000).

ℹ️ From Yogyakarta, Borobudur temple (the world\’s largest Buddhist temple) is approximately 45 km northwest — about 1.5 hours by taxi or organized tour (~IDR 200,000–300,000 return by chartered car). Most travelers combine Borobudur with Prambanan Hindu temple complex (17 km east of the city) in a single day. Sunrise tours to Borobudur are popular — book through your hotel or a local operator.
