In addition we maintain passenger numbers with specific programs, some of<br />
which are outlined below.<br />
• We continue to renovate our stations to make a better environment for<br />
passengers with new shops and facilities (e.g. Internet Centres);<br />
• We implemented a series of activities including a bonus point program<br />
encouraging higher usage – the MTR Club Vow Fun Program; and<br />
• We continue to offer discounts to elders and children for both Airport<br />
Express and Urban Lines. Fare savers were also installed at various<br />
shopping malls and other locations to offer HK$2 dollar discounts<br />
passengers. Lastly, intermodal discounts were extended to passengers<br />
taking MTR and connecting to and from other modes of transportation like<br />
minibuses.<br />

1 Performance excludes events the causes of which are not under the control of MTR or are the results of improvement<br />
projects on the operating railway. Delay means a train operated on the MTR/ AEL which, for the complete journey<br />
between its starting point and destination point, has exceeded the designated time for that journey for at least the<br />
specified amount of time.<br />
2 (Actual train trips in a month/Scheduled train trips in a month) * 100%<br />
3 [(Incoming passengers in a month – passengers in a month delayed ≥ 5 minutes)/Incoming passengers in a month]*100%<br />
4 [(Actual train trips in a month – Train trips in a month delayed by ≥ x minutes)/Actual train trips in a month]*100%<br />
where x = 2 for MTR and x =5 for Airport Express Line (AEL).<br />
