Announcement! Train Tickets For Christmas And New Year's Holidays Can Be Ordered

JAKARTA - PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) or KAI has opened reservations for train tickets for people who want to take a vacation at the end of the year. Starting today, people can book train tickets for departure on December 22, 2024.

Meanwhile, for tomorrow, Friday, November 8, 2024, customers can book tickets for departures on December 23, 2024, and so on following the ordering pattern H-45.

KAI Vice President of Public Relations, Anne Purba explained that tickets can be purchased through the Access by KAI application, the kai.id website, and all other official channels.

"We urge customers to carefully confirm the date of departure, travel routes, and personal data to be properly inputted when making orders. Plan your trip well, including estimating travel time to the station to avoid delays," Anne said in an official statement, Thursday, November 7.

Anne also explained that KAI continues to innovate to improve passenger services. One of the latest innovations is the implementation of the waiting room system or online queue in the process of purchasing long-distance train tickets through the Access by KAI application and the booking.kai.id site.

This waiting room system helps manage ticket booking flows in a more organized manner, especially during high booking traffic, such as during the Eid or Christmas and New Year periods. This feature ensures that KAI applications and sites remain stable, so that users can order tickets more fairly and regularly," he explained.

Anne said that when customers access the KAI application or site during the busy period, they will enter the waiting room and get a queue number. Users then need to wait their turn to be able to access the ticket booking system. This waiting time will vary depending on the number of online users at that time.

"KAI urges people who are going on vacation to book long-distance train tickets, especially for their favorite departure date, not to run out of tickets. This Nataru holiday will provide a more special experience with the presence of the New Generation train which offers better comfort and travel experience," concluded Anne.
