Ramadhan 2027 Umrah: When to Book, Weekly Pricing & SISKOPATUH PPIU Checks

Prepared July 2026 by the SkyIndoFly Editorial Team. Reviewed for Ramadhan 2027 Umrah logistics — see Editorial Standards.

Ramadhan 1448 H is estimated to fall around Monday, February 8, 2027, through Eid around March 9-10, 2027, based on hisab — the official date always awaits the Kementerian Agama sidang isbat on 29 Sha’ban. That means Ramadhan 2027 sits in February, roughly 11 days earlier than Ramadhan 2026, which fell in March. The consequence for pilgrims: the booking window shifts earlier, with research and quota openings peaking in September-October 2026. For a 3-star package from Jakarta, baseline ranges follow the same weekly pattern as prior years — early week Rp 28-42M, mid Rp 35-55M, late pre-itikaf Rp 45-70M, itikaf Rp 60-110M per pilgrim — and the mandatory step before any deposit is verifying the PPIU’s status on Kemenag SISKOPATUH.

Ramadhan 2027 dates are hisab estimates pending the sidang isbat.

When is Ramadhan 2027, and why does a February calendar change booking strategy?

The Hijri calendar shifts about 10-11 days earlier each year against the Gregorian calendar. Ramadhan 1447 H (2026) fell around late February-March; Ramadhan 1448 H (2027) is estimated to begin around February 8, 2027, with Eid around March 9-10, 2027. These figures come from widely-circulated hisab; the final decision always follows the rukyat and Kemenag’s sidang isbat on 29 Sha’ban. If the crescent is sighted a day earlier, the entire weekly schedule shifts 1-2 days — treat the dates here as a planning framework, not a certainty.

The shift into February has two practical implications. First, the booking window moves earlier: for February 2027 departures, PPIU quotas and Umrah-charter tickets typically start opening in the second half of 2026, with pilgrim research peaking in September-October 2026. Those who wait until late 2026 often find favorite slots (itikaf, the closing week of Ramadhan) already taken. Second, the leave and school context differs: February sits mid-semester, so families with school-age children need to plan absences more carefully than for a Ramadhan near school holidays.

InsyaAllah, understanding this calendar shift lets pilgrims budget and arrange leave earlier, before the peak weeks climb toward departure.

Booking window month-by-month: August 2026 → February 2027

This is the core of the guide — not just a price table, but when to do what.

The principle: the earlier your deposit in Q3-Q4 2026, the better your chance of a locked price and a wider choice of weeks. For self-arranged (mandiri) pilgrims, booking at the opening sale saves millions of rupiah versus the H-30 walk-up rate. We break down the mandiri math in the 8-step independent Umrah guide.

Kemenag rules and PPIU obligations to understand

Umrah from Indonesia is state-regulated. Key points behind pilgrim decisions:

• Obligation to go through a licensed PPIU. Under Minister of Religious Affairs Regulation (PMA) No. 8 of 2018 on Umrah Travel Organization, pilgrims travel through a PPIU registered and licensed on Kemenag SISKOPATUH. Booking flights yourself is still possible, but the Umrah visa is issued through an official guarantor — a PPIU or the Saudi Nusuk platform.
• Umrah visa via Nusuk / official guarantor. The Umrah visa is issued through the Saudi system (visa.mofa.gov.sa and the Nusuk app). For package pilgrims it is usually included; for mandiri pilgrims it goes through an official guarantor.
• Mahram as paperwork, not fiqh interpretation. For women pilgrims with mahram requirements, we treat it as an administrative matter — document coordination via a licensed PPIU or Nusuk rules. We cite Kemenag/MUI for the rules; we do not interpret religious law. Consult an ustadz/certified KBIHU for religious matters.
• Beware packages below reasonable ranges. Kemenag repeatedly warns pilgrims to avoid packages priced far below reasonable reference costs, as they risk non-departure. Use the market ranges here as a comparison baseline.

How to verify a PPIU on SISKOPATUH — step by step

This is the most important step before money changes hands. Do it before any deposit:

1. Open siskopatuh.kemenag.go.id. This is Kemenag’s official portal for PPIU and PIHK data.
2. Use the PPIU license check. Enter the agency name or the operating license number from the brochure/contract.
3. Check the license status. The system shows Active / Inactive / Suspended and validity. Only Active-licensed PPIUs may legally dispatch pilgrims.
4. Match the company name. Ensure the SISKOPATUH name matches the receipt and the payment account exactly.
5. Pay to the company account, not a personal one. Transfer the deposit to the PPIU’s business account, keep the proof, and get a written contract with package components, schedule, and cancellation terms.
6. Ask about flight status. Clarify whether the ticket is charter (PPIU-contracted) or scheduled, since this determines pilgrim rights during disruption (see charter vs scheduled below).

If the PPIU status does not appear, is Inactive, or Suspended — do not proceed and find a verified operator. Our full guide to choosing packages and reading contracts is at cheap Umrah tickets 2026 & SISKOPATUH.

Ramadhan 2027 weekly pricing: baseline and the premium mechanism

Final Ramadhan 2027 package prices are released by PPIUs gradually in the second half of 2026. As a planning baseline, here are the ranges that consistently appeared in the 2025-2026 cycle for a 3-star, 12-day package from Jakarta embarkation, which you can use to judge whether a 2027 quote is reasonable:

Why is the itikaf premium so large? The dominant factor is hotel pricing within 200-400 meters of the Masjidil Haram, which historically climbs 3-5x in the last 10 days of Ramadhan, plus charter airfare spiking on peak demand. Non-airfare components (hotel, transport, meals) are quoted in Saudi Riyal, so the SAR/IDR rate affects the total — track the current rate at Bank Indonesia; in the 2025-2026 cycle it moved in a historical band of roughly Rp 4,000-Rp 4,400 per SAR, and a 5% move can shift the total by Rp 1-2.5M.

For a per-route breakdown (CGK/SUB/UPG × Saudia/Garuda/Lion/Citilink) and a more granular weekly table, see the archived Ramadhan 2026 Umrah Pricing Per Week — the 2026 figures remain useful as a cost-structure reference, noting the Gregorian dates differ from 2027.

Airport-of-origin split: where is the most efficient departure?

One of the biggest cost drivers is the embarkation airport:

• Jakarta (CGK) — the most frequency and airline choice (Saudia, Garuda, Lion, plus transit via Emirates/Etihad/Qatar/Turkish). Fares tend to run 5-15% higher than eastern embarkations for equivalent packages. Check the Jakarta-Jeddah (CGK-JED) route.
• Surabaya (SUB) — direct SUB-JED charters are often Rp 1-2M cheaper than CGK for equivalent 3-star packages; a favorite for East Java pilgrims. Check the Surabaya-Jeddah (SUB-JED) route.
• Makassar (UPG) — an eastern-Indonesia Umrah hub with Citilink/Lion charters; competitive for Sulawesi pilgrims.
• Medan (KNO) & Balikpapan (BPN) — more limited coverage; some routes transit first. Compare total cost (airfare + ground transport) before deciding.
• Direct Madinah (CGK-MED) — starting from Madinah saves Madinah-Makkah ground transport, though the airfare is slightly higher.

We cover the per-origin analysis — including when SUB truly beats CGK — in Surabaya vs Jakarta Umrah price difference and Umrah from Makassar, Medan, Balikpapan to Jeddah.

Mandiri vs PPIU for Ramadhan 2027

In the early week, self-arranged (mandiri/DIY) Umrah is historically 12-20% cheaper than a PPIU package because you assemble your own flights, hotel, and transport. But during itikaf the gap narrows sharply: hotels near the Haram are scarce on the open market and many hotel agents work only with large PPIUs. So pilgrims targeting Ramadhan 2027 itikaf should lock a package earlier (Q3-Q4 2026). Elderly or first-time pilgrims usually choose a licensed PPIU for the curated manasik, mahram coordination, and visa handling. We detail charter vs scheduled and its implications in Umrah charter vs scheduled (SISKOPATUH/PPIU).

Charter vs scheduled: why it matters when flights are disrupted

Most Ramadhan Umrah flights use charters contracted by the PPIU; some use scheduled airline tickets. The difference is crucial if a delay or cancellation occurs:

• On Umrah charters, the pilgrim’s contract is with the PPIU and operator, not directly with the airline. Automatic compensation schemes in the style of EU261 or Saudi GACA generally do not apply to dedicated charters, and third-party automated case management typically does not cover them. Your first claim path is the PPIU under your contract.
• On scheduled tickets, passenger rights follow airline regulation and the route’s jurisdiction.

That is why verification step 6 above matters: ask upfront whether your ticket is charter or scheduled, and have the disruption-handling clause written into the PPIU contract.

Quick tips for Ramadhan 2027

• Lock your favorite week in Q3-Q4 2026. Itikaf and closing-week slots go first.
• Verify SISKOPATUH before the deposit. Active status + a company account are the two minimums before you transfer.
• Check your passport early. Ensure at least 8 months validity at a February 2027 departure; renewals take time.
• Consider the early week. The early-vs-itikaf gap can be Rp 40-75M per pilgrim while remaining spiritually calm.
• Zamzam baggage differs by airline. Plan early — see the 12-airline zamzam baggage table.

A note from the Umrah desk

Umrah during Ramadhan needs careful financial and logistical planning, and for 2027 the homework starts earlier because Ramadhan falls in February. Good decisions rest on three things: understanding the calendar shift so you do not book late, verifying the PPIU’s status on SISKOPATUH before money moves, and judging price reasonableness against a transparent market baseline. InsyaAllah, with the steps above, pilgrims and their families can prepare with greater peace of mind.
