普速铁路实施电子客票
Passengers traveling on normal-speed trains will be able to purchase e-tickets for their journeys starting on Saturday, with over 1,300 railway stations included in the new arrangement, China's railway operator said Wednesday.
中国铁路总公司6月17日表示,6月20日起电子客票将在全国普速铁路推广实施,覆盖1300多个普速铁路车站。
Normally limited to high-speed, inter-city trains, e-tickets are now being made available for travel on normal-speed trains, bringing the total number of railway stations using e-tickets to more than 2,400, according to the China State Railway Group Co., Ltd. More than 95% of railway passengers across the country will benefit from the move.
此前电子客票只是在高铁和城际铁路推广,此次在普速铁路推广实施后,全国铁路将有2400多个车站实行电子客票,覆盖95%以上的铁路出行人群。
Passengers using the e-ticket system will be able to pass ticket checks with their ID cards and facial recognition instead of collecting tickets at the stations.
使用电子客票的旅客只需刷身份证和人脸识别就能通过检票闸口,无需人工检票。
The system also reduces waiting time and eliminates the risk of losing tickets or being sold fake tickets.
电子客票系统还能减少候车时间,有效防范丢失车票或买到假车票的风险。
