Several variables shape what you pay for a Jakarta–Penang charter: the distance and prevailing winds on the day, fuel costs across the regions you cross, handling and landing fees at both airports, and the specific aircraft confirmed against live availability. International routing adds overflight permits and customs clearance to the final figure.
You can fly to or from any of these airports at each end; we match the most convenient to your trip:

Soekarno-Hatta International Airport has 12,008 ft and Penang International Airport 10,997 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are.
