Below is a price list of all the Bukit Mertajam ETS fares for Gold and Platinum services on the fast Electric Train Services route between Butterworth - KL Sentral - Gemas.
Working out the prices of ETS train tickets in Malaysia has now become much more complicated.
For bookings made from the 1st of March '20, KTM has introduced a new ETS Flexi Fare (Tambang Flexi ETS) system.
This means ticket prices for ETS trains will vary depending on a number of factors:
1) The earlier you book, the cheaper the ticket:
Early Bird Tickets will be the cheapest tickets available (for booking made over 30 days in advance).
Followed by Intermediate Tickets (booked 6 to 30 days in advance).
Last Minute Tickets (booked 6 days or less in advance) will be the most expensive.
2) The period you want to travel in:
Super Peak - Federal Public Holidays and School Holidays
Peak - State Public Holidays.
Off Peak - All other periods.
3) The day you want to travel:
Weekdays - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday (off peak).
Weekends - Friday, Saturday, Sunday (peak).
4) The time of day you travel:
Peaks Hours - 6am to 10am and 5pm to 9pm.
Off Peak Hours - All other times.
Please Also Note: There are now new, more expensive Business Class tickets available on all Platinum ETS2 train services.
The only way to now find an actual fare for a particular train is to:
Go direct to the KTMB.com.my website and put in your travel dates in their search box >
Please note: trains to the north are now only operated by KTM Komuter services from BM.
So if you want to travel to places like Sungai Petani, Alor Setar, Arau and the Malaysian - Thailand border station of Padang Besar you will now have to take one of these commuter trains.
