Tips and methods for buying airport train tickets

1. Purchase airport train tickets via the official KAI Access app

The most practical method is to use the official KAI Access application from PT Kereta Api Indonesia. Here’s how:

• Download the KAI Access app from the App Store or Google Play.

• Select the "Airport Train" menu.
• Choose your departure and destination stations (e.g., from Manggarai to Soekarno-Hatta Airport).
• Select your desired schedule and number of passengers.
• Proceed to the payment page.

You can choose from various payment options, including credit cards, digital wallets, or bank transfers. Don't forget, you can also use your Honest credit card for unlimited cashback and no admin fees. Plus, with more frequent transactions, you can increase your credit limit for bigger needs!

Once payment is complete, your e-ticket will be sent directly to your email and can be presented at the station gate during check-in.

2. Purchase airport train tickets via the official website (kai.id)

If you prefer using a website, you can buy airport train tickets through kai.id, PT KAI's official site. Follow these steps:

Just like with the app, you can use your Honest Credit Card for faster and more secure transactions.

3. Purchase airport train tickets from automatic vending machines

If you're at the station and don't have time to buy tickets online, you can use the automatic ticket vending machines available at major stations. Here’s how:

• Locate an automatic ticket machine at your departure station, usually near the entrance or waiting area.
• Select your desired destination and departure schedule.
• Enter the number of passengers and choose your train class.
• Make payment using a debit card, credit card, or digital wallet.
• After payment, the ticket will be printed instantly from the machine and can be used immediately for boarding.

These automatic ticket machines are incredibly useful if you need last-minute tickets or wish to avoid long queues at the counter.
