JAKARTA - Approaching the long holiday at the end of this month, there has been an increase in the number of long-distance train (KAJJ) passengers departing from the PT KAI Daop 1 Jakarta area.
From the ticket booking data as of October 24, 2020, it shows the highest number for departures between 27 October 2020 with a temporary volume of around 7,270 to Wednesday 28 October 2020 with a temporary volume of around 7,679 passengers. This data is still subject to change because there are still online ticket bookings.
The average number of passengers per day during the long holiday is more than 2 (two) times higher than last week's weekend on Friday, October 16, 2020, which was 2,876 passengers with a total of 18 trains operated.
In order to accommodate the needs of train service users who have increased, during this long holiday period there will be up to 27 KAJJ trips per day that will depart from the Daop 1 Jakarta area with initial departures from Gambir Station, Pasar Senen Station and Jakarta Jakarta Station.
The increase in train passengers ahead of the long holiday also has an impact on the congestion of rapid test queues at stations. It was recorded that on 24 and 25 October 2012, rapid service at Pasar Senen and Gambir Stations served an average of 1,100 prospective passengers who conducted rapid tests.
To avoid delays or lags behind the train, passengers are advised to carry out a rapid test H-1 before the scheduled departure for prospective passengers who want to take advantage of the rapid test service at the station.
Prospective passengers are expected to be able to arrange their departure time and prepare a sufficient time span if they are still going to carry out a rapid test on the same day as the day of departure. It is not recommended to come 3 hours before departure to avoid the risk of being left behind by the train considering the rapid test queue at the station is quite tight.
Rapid test for train passenger candidates does not have to be done at the station but can also be done at the nearest clinics that provide rapid test facilities.
In the Daop 1 Jakarta area, rapid test services for prospective passengers are served at Gambir Station and Pasar Senen Station with operating hours from 07.00 WIB to 19.00 WIB and a fee of IDR 85,000. Prospective train passengers who want to do a rapid test at the station must have a KAJJ ticket booking code that has been paid in full.
For prospective passengers who are found to be reactive during the rapid test, they are not allowed to travel on trains and tickets will be refunded 100% of duty outside the order fee and are advised to carry out further medical examinations.
Currently, train ticket reservations can be ordered from D-7 before departure online through the KAI Access Application or collaborating external channels. Ticket services at station counters only serve goshow passengers 30 minutes before the train leaves.
