With large crowds expected during the holiday period, passengers are advised to reserve seats in advance and make full use of the convenient services offered by over 10,000 convenience store ticketing locations, as well as the high-speed rail "T-EX Mobile Ticketing" app, to complete ticket purchasing and collection early. This allows for direct entry and boarding upon arrival at the station, saving valuable time and avoiding crowded stations. During the transport period, all trains will maintain 3 to 5 cars of free-seating service. Passengers holding periodic tickets, return tickets, or EasyCard/ iPass co-branded cards (with auto top-up enabled) may directly tap in and use the free-seating cars.
