Starting May 12, Ukrzaliznytsia JSC is launching the ability to purchase commuter tickets via its app nationwide, the company announced on Telegram on Tuesday.
“We constantly analyze your feedback, optimize the system’s performance, and expand the map of available routes,” the message states.
According to Ukrzaliznytsia, 15,000 tickets were purchased per day in April.
In addition, last month, following the integration of student discounts for commuter trains and City Express into the app, 30,000 bookings were made.
Ukrzaliznytsia also noted that more online bookings were received in April (250,000) than in March (139,000).
In early April, it was reported that online tickets for commuter trains via the “Ukrzaliznytsia” app became available to passengers in seven more regions—Lviv, Volyn, Ternopil, Rivne, Ivano-Frankivsk, Zakarpattia, and Chernivtsi.
In addition, discounted tickets from Ukrzaliznytsia’s special reserve can now also be purchased online without visiting a ticket office.
To purchase an online ticket, you need to update the UZ app, click “Add Discount” in your profile, and enter your ID number; if necessary, check the “Wheelchair User” box.
