[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] SRT's Lunar New Year train ticket reservation has begun. Today (the 9th), tickets for the Gyeongbu Line can be reserved, and tomorrow (the 10th), tickets for the Honam Line will be available.


SRT operator SR has started selling tickets for this year's Lunar New Year holiday. Online reservations are available from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., and at each station's ticket window from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m.


The trains available for reservation are all SRT trains operating for five days from the 23rd to the 27th. Tickets can be reserved up to 6 per one-way trip, with a maximum of 12 tickets per person.


As of around 8 a.m. on the 9th, most of the seats on the SRT are fully booked. <br/>Photo by SR, screenshot of the remaining seats status for holiday tickets.

As of around 8 a.m. on the 9th, the remaining seat status for tickets reserved online shows that tickets for the 25th are fully booked. Additionally, all southbound tickets for the 23rd, when the holiday begins, are also fully reserved.


Tickets reserved online must be paid for between 3 p.m. tomorrow and midnight on the 12th. If the deadline is missed, the reservation will be automatically canceled. Offline ticket sales stations include Seoul, Yongsan, Yeongdeungpo, Suwon, and Gwangmyeong stations.


A point to note when reserving online is the communication status. SR stated, "When using the homepage or mobile web, due to a large number of users, there is a waiting number issuance and a certain amount of time required until the actual reservation, so maintaining a stable communication environment is important."


When making reservations offline, tickets cannot be purchased through automatic ticket machines or the SR customer center.



SR plans to supply a total of 304,220 seats during the holiday period by maximizing the use of reserve trains.
