Okay, just an update on what it is like entering Indonesia and quarantining.
PCR Test: So far, it is still 72 hours before your flight(calendar day, not 24 hour clock).
Flight was on Wed, wife and I had no problems there. Upon checking in at DFW, we were asked to show the pcr tests, quarantine hotel confirmation, vaccine certificates, and Peduiluindungi when checking in. Other passengers were asked to show them at the gate(probably had a connecting flight). Simple, easy, and straightforward. Always make sure you have plenty of copies.
Flightwise DFW to Tokyo Narita to Jakarta was apart from a 1 hour 20 minute delay at Narita. Arrived at about 1am.
Upon arriving at the gate, you go as normal like you would go to immigration, but they have different check points where you show all your information. You get a ticket with a QR code on it which is used at the PCR testing. Arrive at the PCR testing site 1, it goes fairly quickly where you show them everything once again. Do the PCR test and they say they will let the hotel you are staying at what your results are in 1 hour. No need to wait around at the airport for the tests. This was only recently changed this week according to the hotel rep. Head to immigration and there is another PCR Testing station, but no one was there. My guess is depending on the time of day, it will be used. Had another check point right before immigration and they asked to scan the QR code from the ticket you will have received earlier.
Immigration, baggage claim, and customs are the same as usual. Once you exit, there should be a hotel rep there with a sign and they basically confirm everything. You get a picture to show a rep from the hotel is there and you are going with them. They have you fill out some forms there and they lead you to the taxis. The quarantine hotels have a deal with Bluebird so this was the longest wait. Finally got a taxi and the hotel rep keeps your passport and you get it back when you finish your sentence, I mean quarantine.
Hotel check in was fairly easy too. They took up to the car park and there is a special check in center there. We are given the food menu and shown to our rooms. Where my wife and I are, we are in a block and we are allowed to leave the room to use a microwave and refill our water bottles. We can't order GoJek or Grab for food.
At some point in about a week we are supposed to get our second PCR Test. We haven't heard anything from the hotel about the one we took at the airport so no news is good news.
