514 thousand residents returned to Jakarta who took the train, not all travelers returned
Jakarta – Pt Kereta API Indonesia (Persero) noted that there were 758.791 residents who left Jakarta by train during the 2025 Lebaran home coming period. However, there were only 514.823 people who were taken up after this metropolitan city. “Up to 758,791 passengers have left Jakarta through the regional operations 1 (DAOP 1) stations since the start of the Lebaran transport period from March 20 to April 6, 2025 at 24.00 WIB,” said Kai Anne Purba, Vice President of Public Relations. In the same period, 514.823 passengers were recorded to return to Jakarta with the Train Service (KA). He said the data showed that the reverse flow to Jakarta would continue to continue. Browse to continue with content, although Kai noted that the movement of passengers during the reflux of Eid Al -Fitr 1446 Hijri occurred relatively proportionally and was not concentrated on a specific day or two. This condition is inseparable from the ‘work of anywhere’ (WFA) policy imposed by the government until April 8, 2025. “This policy enables the public to return to Jakarta in phases and not hurry, so that the density of reflux can be better managed,” he said. The tendency of the arrival of passengers to Jakarta through the train station has shown a significant increase since April 2, 2025. On that date, there were 41,727 passengers at different daop 1 Jakarta stations. This figure increased to 49,499 passengers on April 3 and rose to 52,564 on April 4. The highlight of arrival took place on April 5 and 6, 2025, each with the number of passengers arrived as many as 52,651 and 52,699 people. Based on temporary ticket sales figures until this morning, it is estimated that there will still be 51,452 passengers on April 7 to Jakarta, leaving the arrival volume high, despite the predicted peak of the reverse flow. Meanwhile, on April 6, 2025, the number of passengers leaving Jakarta is still quite high, which is 38.109 people. It shows that although some people have started returning to Jakarta, there is still considerable mobility from the city. Anne states that this year’s smooth reflux could not be separated from the positive impact of the WFA policy. Compared to previous years, this reflux is much more controlled. “There is no big boom in one day and passengers are evenly distributed for a few days,” Anne said. Until April 7, 2025 at 07.00 WIB, Kai noted that as many as 4.342,698 tickets were sold, equivalent to 95 percent of the total seat capacity. Of these, 3,662,456 prolonged train tickets with a occupancy rate of 106 percent were sold. While 680.242 local train tickets are sold with a 59 percent occupation. In the period 21 March to 6 April 2025, a total of 3,634,782 passengers were served by Kai, both by prolonged trains and local trains. This figure is proof of the great importance of the public towards rail transport services that are safe, comfortable and efficient.
