Passenger Tales

Based on my observations:

Busiest MRT Station: Cubao, I never saw this station empty. There are always snaking lines to the cashiers and multitudes of passengers are either embarking or disembarking to or from the trains. Next to Cubao are the North and Pedro Gil Stations. A friendly tip – when you’re going to Cubao and you have to go back the same way you came, buy two tickets already from your station of origin to avoid falling in line to buy a return ticket in Cubao, unless you have the stored value ticket.

Least Utilized Station: Santolan-Annapolis Station, hardly any passengers there.

Most Inconvenient Station: Ortigas Station, very near the Shaw station and very far from the Ortigas and EDSA intersection, bad planning or politics? Hmmm…I think there was an issue about it before. Can’t remember what it was now…

Most Convenient: Shaw Station of course! This is usually where I embark and disembark so it’s very convenient for me. Hehehe. It’s connected to Shangri-la Mall, Star Mall and that EDSA mall in Crossing (the name escapes me now) and near SM Mega Mall also. Ayala Station is also very convenient. One can say that the Ayala station is the gateway to the Makati business district and the more high-end malls coming from EDSA highway.
