What this Istanbul & Jakarta page shows
This page compares the full metro areas of Istanbul (IST, SAW) and Jakarta (CGK, HLP) and lists every destination both cities can reach on a nonstop flight: 27 in all, across 19 countries and 6 regions. For each one you can see the flight time and distance from IST and from JKT, so the trade-off between the two legs is clear at a glance.
Use the map to see how far the options spread, then check the meet-in-the-middle pick (Mumbai has the smallest gap in flight distance here) before opening the full table to sort all 27 shared routes. To filter by month and check live fares, open the Midway app with Istanbul and Jakarta already loaded.
