3. The traffic in Jakarta is really, really bad: If you travel to Jakarta you’ll likely be introduced to Jakarta’s infamous macet (pronounced “ma-chet”) – which translates to “traffic jam” – on the ride from the airport to your hotel. Everyone who lives in Jakarta complains about macet constantly, including me. Get traffic updates from New York and the surrounding areas before you head out with Eyewitness News. Stay updated with real-time traffic maps and freeway trip times. On contrary, Jakarta city itself tends to get quieter during Raya (you will hardly see traffic jam, etc). My suggestion: Go to Bandung around 4th But make sure you're back to Jakarta before Raya weekend - i.e. before thusday (or else you will be stuck for hours in traffic jam!) Edited: 13 years ago TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Traffic around several areas of the Jakarta Capital Area was crowded during the first day of Eid Al-Fitr. The Traffic Management Center (TMC) of the Directorate of Traffic of the Metro Jaya Regional Police recorded heavy traffic in the MT Haryono toll road and Hotel Indonesia Roundabout on Monday, May 2, 2022. .
