How to buy train tickets?

From today (August 8), the elevated section of the Nhon - Hanoi Railway Station metro line officially began commercial operation. People can travel by train for free during the first 15 days of operation. After that, passengers will have to buy tickets.

Mr. Vu Hong Truong, General Director of Hanoi Metro (the operator of the Nhon - Hanoi Railway Station metro line) said that the ticket price for one station is 8,000 VND, for the whole line is 12,000 VND/trip. A daily ticket is 24,000 VND, valid for one day, with no limit on the number of trips.

General tickets are 200,000 VND/month; priority tickets for students are 100,000 VND/month; group tickets are 140,000 VND/month; free for children under 6 years old, people over 60 years old have a free bus pass.

Compared to the Cat Linh - Ha Dong metro line, the system of stations and tickets for the Nhon - Hanoi station metro line are different.

Specifically, the single ticket type is round and looks like a coin. Customers who buy single tickets will be given this ticket, when going through the ticket gate, use the ticket to scan to open the gate, when getting off at the station, insert it into the ticket machine to open the gate.

Single and daily tickets are only valid for 20 minutes after purchase. If you do not board the train, you must go to the ticket counter to update.

Monthly passes have customer identification to help limit situations where tickets are lent to others.

In particular, ticket sales areas will be located on both sides of the route.
