--- Quote from: Neobie on June 20, 2011, 11:43:59 PM ---The Indonesia rail website (can read enough Bahasa to make it through the system) shows departures from Gambir and Jatinegara Stations in Jakarta, but produces an error for the Kota and Pasar Senen Stations. Blue are the trains confirmed by the official website, red are additional ones from the website suggested by Krabbe:

21 JUN 2011
Gaya Baru Malam (1150-2144) from Jakarta to Yogyakarta
Jayabaya Selatan (1400-2316) from Jakarta to Yogyakarta
Bima 10034 (1700-0042) from Jakarta Gambir to Yogyakarta
Gajayana (1715-0130) from Jakarta to Yogyakarta
Argo Lawu 40008 (2000-0338) from Jakarta Gambir to Yogyakarta
Taksaka Malam 10042 (2045-0430) from Jakarta Gambir to Yogyakarta
Progo (2115-0620) from Jakarta to Yogyakarta

That's a pretty wide spread of possible arrival times, but since the earliest possible train arrives at almost ten in the evening, I'd agree with Prophet and it looks certain that everyone will be held up by an Hours of Operation when they get to Yogyakarta.

Update/correction: from our friends in Jakarta, looks like these are our two trains:

21 JUN 2011
Gajayana (1715-0130) from Jakarta to Yogyakarta
Argo Lawu 40008 (2000-0338) from Jakarta Gambir to Yogyakarta

Prophet:
It should be interesting to see what travel plans they take to get out of Indonesia. Flights out of JOG appear to be really limited. The only international destinations I can find are Malaysia and Singapore. Otherwise they will have to connect through Jakarta or Bali.

Prophet:
There are some great beaches on Malaysia.

apskip:
Since Johannesburg has been identified as a possible next leg after Borobdur and I have great faith in hints from Chateau d'If, I have looked at the flights from Yogyakarta to Johannesburg. There are many possibilities which take longer and get in with this one, but the basic flight combination is:

GA215 JOG CGK 1755 1900
GA834 CGK SIN 2000 2210
SQ478 SIN JNB  0200+1 0700+1

However, there is another more circuitous route requiring backtracking to the western edge of Australia which would be useful only if teams are released early enough to catch it:

GA250 JOG DPS 0800 1015
GA726 DPS PER 1220 1500
QF303 PER JNB  2350 0520+1

This combination requires leaving as late as 10 hours after the one above it and is scheduled to arrive 100 minutes earlier.

 :lol:

It was mainly because of these two flights that I thought of it!

Malaysia Airlines – Flight 203    10h 40m
     Take-off    Sat 1:20a    KUL    Sepang, Malaysia
     Landing    Sat 6:00a    JNB    Johannesburg, South Africa

Singapore Air – Flight 478    10h 50m
     Take-off    Sat 2:10a    SIN    Singapore, Singapore
     Landing    Sat 7:00a    JNB    Johannesburg, South Africa

I don't see your Perth flight happening on Friday the 24th  :duno:
