A More Exclusive Journey, KAI’s Compartment Suite Hits a New Record in July 2026

Train travel is offering customers more ways to enjoy the journey. For those who value comfort and privacy, the Compartment Suite provides a more personal travel experience—and demand for the service continues to grow.

In July 2026, KAI’s Compartment Suite served 5,712 customers, marking its highest monthly volume from January to July 2026. The figure was 10.21% higher than the 5,183 customers recorded in June 2026.

The positive trend is also reflected in the cumulative figures. From January to July 2026, the Compartment Suite served 31,835 customers, representing a 51.47% increase compared with the 21,017 customers recorded during the same period in 2025.

KAI Vice President of Corporate Communication Anne Purba said the growth reflects the increasingly diverse preferences of customers when choosing how they want to experience train travel.

Every customer has different travel needs. Some prioritize efficiency, while others value comfort and privacy. The growth of the Compartment Suite shows that more personalized travel experiences have a market segment that continues to expand.

The monthly figures throughout 2026 also show a clear upward trend. The Compartment Suite served 4,241 customers in January, followed by 3,987 in February, 4,023 in March, 4,019 in April, 4,670 in May, 5,183 in June, and finally 5,712 customers in July.

Compared with January 2026, the number of customers in July increased by approximately 34.69%. Growth became more visible starting in May, continued through June, and reached its highest point in July.

The trend highlights growing interest in a more private and personalized travel experience as customer preferences for train travel continue to evolve.

Anne added that the development serves as one of KAI’s indicators in understanding changing customer needs while creating more diverse and differentiated services.

Railways now serve an increasingly broad range of journeys, both in terms of destinations and customer preferences. KAI will continue to understand these needs as part of our service development, while keeping safety and service quality as our top priorities.

With a more private space, a more personal atmosphere, and growing customer interest, the Compartment Suite offers a different way to enjoy the journey by train.
