Hong Kong’s MTR Corporation has announced that it will keep fares unchanged for the second consecutive year, following an annual review. The fare freeze is attributed to a fare adjustment mechanism that considers inflation, wages, and household incomes. The corporation continues to offer fare concessions benefiting over 600 million passenger trips, valued at over HK$3.2 billion last year. MTR aims to maintain competitive fare levels while supporting the community. The last fare increase occurred in 2024, with a 3.09% hike. MTR serves about 4.9 million commuters daily and reported a net profit of over HK$14.6 billion in 2025.
