If you fly these airlines on a
regular basis or can
book partner flights through your frequent flyer account for the non-Chase Ultimate Rewards partners to still booker a
cheaper reward flight
than booking directly through the airline.
Sample fares include: Bukittinggi: 16 hours, 225,000 rupiah, 17:00 (note that prices from agents in Tuk - Tuk are negotiable and
cheaper still from the bus station in Parapat but advance
bookings are highly recommended as buses are usually full) Medan: 5 hours, 32,000 rupiah,
regular departures Pematang Siantar: 1.5 hours, 15,000 rupiah,
regular departures (check price) It is also possible to get to Berastagi, Sibolga and Ketambe from Pangururan on the opposite side of Samosir Island, but this requires an hour and a half long journey from Tuk - Tuk first and this added time often makes it more time consuming
than just catching transport from Parapat.
