This year, the priority reservation period for transportation-vulnerable groups has been extended to two days to enhance booking convenience. Additionally, unlike previous years when all routes were reserved in one day, this year reservations can be made by dividing the routes. Specifically, on the 15th, reservations for the Gyeongbu, Gyeongjeon, and Donghae lines are available, and on the 16th, reservations for the Honam and Jeolla lines can be made.


Priority reservation days are available online only to seniors, disabled persons, and veterans with disabilities who have pre-registered. For those who have difficulty using online services or have not registered in advance, phone reservations are also available for Lunar New Year holiday tickets. Pre-registration for disabled persons and veterans with disabilities is open from the 5th of this month (12:00 PM) to the 11th (6:00 PM). Disabled persons already registered do not need to register again.


On the 17th, tickets for the Gyeongbu, Gyeongjeon, and Donghae lines can be reserved, and on the 18th, tickets for the Honam and Jeolla lines are available.


SR will open a dedicated website for Lunar New Year SRT ticket reservations from 2:00 PM on the 12th to allow customers to familiarize themselves with the reservation process in advance. Access to the dedicated website requires membership registration.


Tickets reserved must be paid for by midnight on the 21st of this month; unpaid tickets will be automatically canceled. However, customers who reserved by phone can complete payment by midnight on the 24th.


Remaining seats not sold during the reservation period will be available for purchase from 3:00 PM on the 18th through the website, SRT app, station counters, kiosks, and other online and offline channels, just like regular tickets.



Lee Jong-guk, CEO of SR, said, “This Lunar New Year holiday, we have expanded the reservation period and the proportion of seats allocated for transportation-vulnerable groups. We will do our best to prepare the reservation system and guide customers so that all SRT customers planning to visit their hometowns during the holiday can conveniently book their tickets.”
