Tips to Buy Train Tickets
- Book in AdvanceKeretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM) usually releases ETS and Intercity train schedules several weeks ahead. Booking early helps secure the best fares and preferred seats, especially for weekends, holidays, and popular routes like Kuala Lumpur to Penang or Ipoh.
- Be FlexibleIf your travel dates and times are flexible, you’ll have a wider choice of trains and may find better prices. Travelling outside peak periods ensures smoother boarding and a more relaxed journey.
- Choose Off-Peak TimesTravelling on weekdays or during non-holiday periods often results in lower ticket prices and fewer passengers. Off-peak travel lets you enjoy a quieter, more comfortable experience onboard.
