2. Offline Ticket Purchase

For those who prefer to buy tickets in person, you can do so at the station counter.

• Prepare your identification in the form of an ID card
• Select the route, number of passengers, and departure schedule
• Fill in the available fields according to your identity
• Select seats according to your needs
• Request a proof of purchase from the retail cashier to be printed at the departure station
