JAKARTA - PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) or KAI noted that long-distance train tickets during the Lebaran 2023 homecoming period were only sold as much as 46 percent per day.

The tickets sold were for train departures in the period 12 to 3 May 2023.

VP of Public Relations Joni Martinus said tickets that had been sold for the Lebaran homecoming period were 1,397,428 tickets or 46 percent of the total tickets provided were 3,065,404. This means that 1,667,976 tickets have not been sold.

Even so, Joni is optimistic that the number of ticket sales will approach Eid al-Fitr 2023.

"The number will still increase, because sales are still ongoing," he said in a statement, Monday, April 3.

Joni revealed that the period before Lebaran was dominated by passengers from the West (Jakarta or Bandung) towards the East (Central Java and East Java).

"For the period after Lebaran, passengers from the East (Central Java or East Java) are dominated towards the West (Jakarta or Bandung)," he said.
