Abstract
The presence of airport train provides an alternative for users to access Soekarno-Hatta Internarional Airport in avoiding congestion on the road due to increased traffic volume. Since the first operating, there has been a rapid change in fare and a significant increasing thus effecting on purchasing ability of people. This study aims to evaluate the airport train fare based on Willingness to Pay (WTP) of users. Data collection is carried out by users interviews (stated preference) at the station and on the train. Analysis of WTP uses Dicrete Choice Model by comparing scenario improvement services and existing services. The attributes used are cost and headway. The result of the estimated value of WTP is IDR 83,969, where it is greater than the existing fare. So, it is still possible to increase the fare which is certainly by improving service performances.
