High-speed rail stations tend to get extremely crowded during every holiday period.
During the transport period, each train will have 3 to 5 cars with non-reserved seating. Passengers holding regular tickets, multi-ride tickets, or EasyCard co-branded cards and iPASS co-branded cards can also use these cards to access non-reserved seating by simply tapping in.
When using EasyCard or iPASS co-branded cards to tap in, please ensure the auto top-up function is enabled.
