thumb|right|300px|Hundreds of cars and buses queueing at Port of Merak, [[Banten with destination to the Port of Bakauheni in Lampung as (homecoming) season began in before Eid, 2014.]] ' (sometimes also known as ') is an Indonesian phenomenon where migrants or migrant workers all across Indonesia return to their hometown or village during or before major holidays, especially Lebaran (Eid al-Fitr). Although the homecoming travel before Lebaran takes place in most Indonesian urban centers, the highlight is on the nation's largest urban agglomeration; Greater Jakarta, as millions of Jakartans exit the city by various means of transportation, overwhelming train stations and airports and also clogging highways, especially the Trans-Java toll road and Java's Northern Coast Road.
The primary motivation of this homecoming tradition is to visit one's family, especially parents. However, people might seek to come to their hometown during this period to attend a rare opportunity: a gathering of members of the extended family, the seldom seen relatives that are normally scattered in other cities, other provinces or even overseas. The term is also used by Indonesians living abroad to refer to their activity returning to Indonesia during the holiday season in whichever country of residence.
