Bus & Travel Tickets to Cirebon

Cirebon, as one of the largest cities on the northern coast of West Java, has become a top choice for business trips, tourism, or family visits. Its strategic location eases access from major cities such as Jakarta, Bandung, Bekasi, and cities in Central and East Java. With the increasing need for mobility to Cirebon, the demand for bus tickets to Cirebon is always high, both for regular travel and particular moments like the homecoming season.

Bus Routes to Cirebon

Cirebon is served by intercity interprovincial (AKAP) and intercity within province (AKDP) bus routes. The main popular routes to Cirebon include the following major cities:

• Jakarta to Cirebon From Jakarta, AKAP buses depart from main terminals such as Terminal Pulo Gebang, Terminal Kampung Rambutan, and Kalideres. They head straight to Harjamukti Terminal in Cirebon, with the journey typically taking 4-5 hours, depending on traffic conditions.
• Bekasi to Cirebon This route is also very popular, especially for passengers living in the eastern Jabodetabek area. Departure points are from Bekasi Terminal and several main bus pools. The trip to Cirebon usually takes around 4 hours.
• Bandung to Cirebon Services are available from Terminal Cicaheum as well as certain bus pools in Bandung directly to Cirebon. This route is favored for both business and leisure travel, as it connects two key cities in West Java.
• Yogyakarta to Cirebon For those traveling from Central Java and DIY, AKAP bus routes to Cirebon are available. Departure points are typically from Giwangan Terminal in Yogyakarta and several other spots. The journey lasts around 8-10 hours, depending on traffic density.
• Other cities like Surabaya, Semarang, and Tegal Some operators also serve routes from Surabaya, Semarang, Tegal, and even Pekalongan to Cirebon. However, for certain routes like Surabaya or East Java, trips are usually done with a transit in major cities like Semarang or Tegal before proceeding to Cirebon.

These routes are highly sought after due to the availability of a large number of fleets and a variety of departure schedules. Most operators use comfortable executive buses for long-distance travel.

Bus Schedules to Cirebon

Bus schedules to Cirebon vary, tailored to passengers' needs from various departure cities. Departure from Jakarta usually starts from 6 am until 9 pm. From Bekasi, the schedule is similar, with departures from morning until night. Bandung areas generally have departures every 2-3 hours.

For routes from Yogyakarta, Semarang, and cities in Central and East Java, bus schedules typically align with night schedules, with departures from 4 pm to 10 pm, allowing passengers to arrive in Cirebon by morning or early next day.

Holiday seasons and festive days like Eid and Christmas can affect schedules and increase the number of departures due to the surge in passengers. Therefore, it's highly recommended to always check the latest schedules and seat availability on Traveloka before traveling, especially during peak seasons.

Sleeper Bus to Cirebon

So far, the availability of sleeper buses direct to Cirebon from major cities like Jakarta, Bandung, and Bekasi is still limited. Most operators serving sleeper routes focus on cross-provincial routes with greater distances, such as Jakarta – Surabaya or Jakarta – Malang routes.

If you really desire the extra comfort of a sleeper bus, you might consider a transit route, for example, taking a sleeper bus to Semarang or Tegal, then continuing your journey to Cirebon with a regular bus. However, for a direct route to Cirebon, executive buses remain the main choice with facilities nearly equal to sleepers.

Double-decker bus fleets are usually available for super popular routes and very long distances like Jakarta–Surabaya or Jakarta–Malang. Currently, double-decker buses are not yet reported to serve direct routes from major cities to Cirebon. If you want to try a double-decker bus, a transit route in major cities such as Semarang or Jakarta might be an option, but for the final destination of Cirebon, executive buses remain reliable.
