High Demand: Nearly 50,000 Whoosh Tickets Sold Out During Long Weekend Holiday
PT KCIC recorded sales of 20,595 Whoosh tickets on 14 May 2026. Meanwhile, from 15 May 2026 until 08:00 WIB, Whoosh ticket sales had reached around 8,000 tickets. “This number is predicted to continue increasing to around 20,000 tickets sold until the departure of the last train today,” said KCIC General Manager for Corporate Secretary Eva Chairunisa in a written statement in Jakarta on Friday (15/5/2026). Eva stated that public interest in using Whoosh during this long weekend is quite high. This is evident from the Whoosh departure tickets from Halim Station on 14 May 2026, which were observed to be sold out in the time slot from 08:00 to 14:00 WIB. “In total, the Whoosh tickets sold during this long weekend period have reached around 49,000 tickets,” she said. Eva mentioned that passengers are dominated by the public utilising the long holiday to travel, especially from Jakarta to Bandung and its surroundings for holidays. In addition to serving as travel access, Whoosh tickets can also be used by passengers to obtain various attractive promotions through the Whoosh Value+ programme. “By showing the Whoosh ticket, whether e-ticket or printed ticket, passengers can enjoy discounts, free entry access, and shuttle services at 20 destinations consisting of station tenants, hotels, tourist destinations, shopping centres, culinary spots, and partner restaurants,” Eva continued. Eva added that Whoosh Value+ provides added value for passengers because Whoosh tickets are not only used for travel but can also be utilised to obtain various promotions and facilities at the destination. “We thank the public for their trust in choosing Whoosh as a mode of transportation during this long weekend. We hope that all passengers’ journeys and holidays with Whoosh are comfortable, enjoyable, and memorable,” said Eva.
