To reach Serang from Bengkulu, fly from Fatmawati Soekarno Airport (BKS) to Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK) in Jakarta. From the airport, take an airport bus or taxi to Serang. The distance is approximately 600 km. This is the most efficient route as direct land travel from Bengkulu to Banten is extremely long and tiring.
Total Distance: Driving distance 750 km; Air distance 600 km.
Take the Damri bus from the airport directly to Serang.
Year-round, though avoid peak holiday seasons.
