Klook launches real-time rail booking service for foreign tourists in Korea

Global travel platform Klook launched a real-time train ticket booking service for international visitors in Korea, aiming to boost regional tourism through expanded rail access. The service, which went live Monday, is based on a ticket sales agreement signed in October 2025 between Klook and Korea Railroad (KORAIL). Through the platform, foreign travelers can check real-time train schedules and seat availability across all KORAIL routes and purchase tickets instantly via Klook’s mobile app and website. They can also board trains directly using digital vouchers, without exchanging them for paper tickets at a station counter. Klook supports more than 20 languages, over 40 currencies and a range of global payment methods, removing some of the friction that has made rail travel difficult for visitors unfamiliar with the Korean booking system. Klook's new service is expected to simplify the booking process for international visitors. The initiative aims to improve rail access for inbound tourists and encourage regional travel, with the broader goal of supporting local economies. “RailwaysWeiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Korea Times Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Korea Times
