Benefits of railway reservation system

Railways department is the central government department which provides various opportunities for the travellers and employees too. Indian railways had provided the reservation system on different trains to different places. By reserving our ticket you can get the seat of your choice and can book the ticket before the anyone can . Reservation is very helpful during the festival seasons because at that time it is very crowdy and we cannot take a ticket too. For old people the reservation helps a lot and can get the food in the compartment itself. Reservation system helps you not to stand in a queue to get the ticket.

Freedom of choosing seat for a comfortable journey
Jul 31, 2016 01:31 PM 12009 Views

Railway reservation system is just the awesome facility which have been provided by the railway department. We have a freedom for choosing our own seat as per our preference so that we can make our journey comfortable and trouble free specially when we are travelling so long route. In Indian Railway reservation system there are different class for reservation like follows:


1) 2S - 2nd class seating reservation


2) CC - AC chair car reservation


3) SL - Sleeper Class reservation


4) 3A - 3 Tier AC sleeper


5) 2A - 2 Tier AC sleeper


6) 1A - 1st Class AC sleeper


The some of the major advantages are below:


1) Advance booking of seat


2) Avoiding last moment rush for getting ticket in a long queue in the ticket counter


3) Avoiding travel in  general coaches which are generally become overcrowded in each station.


4) We can leave our seat and go for toilet or roaming around the coach as we know our seat is reserved which is not always very easy while travelling in general coaches.


So, to make our journey happy and memorable lets go for reservation. Thanks to Railway Department for providing this great facility to the people.:-)


Working good for other countries
Jul 28, 2016 07:44 AM 11237 Views

It’s working Good for other Countries but not for India. I am not against reservation but the system should eventually bring people up and make them compete with the main line.Why majority reserved Category people end up with reserved Jobs only? Because the system, even though gave them the fast track ladders but still fails to make them competitive enough to run in an open competition.Different segments of Society are like different Kids of the nation. If some Kids are week, Parents try to bring them up so that they can live with pride. Bringing different size of wheel cheers at all stages won’t help. Fact is that the system itself is killing their will to walk.

The railway provide this facility the the journey become easy because the we can book or reservetion of ticket online with help of internet it is reduce the physical and mental stress   go to station standing line for booking ticket but irctc launch this facility journey is easy because once we book the tickets we get confirm seats hence save of time and money and tension free .


Today our country is overpopulated so each people has not possible go station for ticket booking and no guarantee to give confirmed ticket but use of online reservation system this  load remove


I experence that the online resrvation system gives accurate schedul and  give accurate information like train number, train time, train live status, seat availability, and the most important is this system  is alert you for ticket confirm or not by pnr number and send message automatically on your mobile .therfore which is also reduce the effort for go to station and check ticket is confirm or not

When U are getting wait listed tickets for any journey, do not worry.


One option is to book one child ticket extra, along with Ur own ticket.


If the final chart shows RAC for both the tickets, U will be able to get a full berth, with additional 50% fare due to the child ticket. later U can say to TTE that the child did not turn-up, get the same marked on the chart, and apply for TDR / refund for un-traveled child. But I did not do this a few times, as I got the berth for my night journey.


If U have a manual counter booked ticket, just reach some time before the departure, and cancel the child ticket at the counter after chart is prepared, and get full refund'minus' clerical charges of Rs. 20.00, for the Child-RAC ticket.


I tried this a few times, and worked well, for getting the berth.This is always better than, roaming around the TTE for most of the time, for confirmation of RAC berth, by paying some money to his pocket, out of the way.


Thanks.

Feb 17, 2016 03:00 PM 21423 Views

If you have great facility providing by Indian railway then why you wasting your time by standing in a queue.So I advice him, next time when you want  TO BOOK YOUR TICKET Please visit Indian Railway site. It is really good website prepared by Indian railway, if you don't visit yet please  visit this site.really you can easily book your ticket from this site.


1) The online reservation system is a very good feature, because standing in Queues all the time and jostling away wasting your time is not the best thing to do, so the IRCTC website does help a great deal to book your tickets.


2) Tatkal: This facility is a great boon, if you consider the cases of emergency, but a lot of people do use it in a wrongful manner and the entry of agents into the reservation system is nothing less then a cancer for the whole system. The Site goes down at exactly 8:01 a.m and you have about 0.1% chance of getting a ticket, that too if your lucky.


On the other hand if you switch to an agent, first of all he would promise you a CONFIRMED ticket in the very first meeting. That in itself is a proof that there is a huge racket going on somewhere.


3)PNR status: The status enquiry feature is  a lot better than before, when you had to dial your PNR number over and over again to no avail. The website does give your status fairly easily.

It is very good because journey becomes easy
May 29, 2015 10:31 PM 21885 Views (via Mobile)

Today our country is overpopulated.we can see that every public place is over crowded. Same way railway station and trains are also over crowded. We cannot find even place to stand in the train in general compartment.


So it is not possible to undertake journey without proper seat or berth. if duration of journey is long then it becomes very difficult and we cannot think of journey by train without reservation.


So railway reservation is very useful Even becomes very necessary. Therefore we must get our reservation in advance so that our purpose can be solved. So it has very good advantage because in case of emergency or in acute requirements we can book a ticket and can start journey.


As per railway ruling we can book a ticket 120 days in advance but this is not good even not worth. journey is uncertain who knows what will happen after four months.


Any how  this system is good and useful. people are Getting benefits by railwi department.

Advance booking in Indian Railways
Apr 19, 2015 08:28 AM 20080 Views

The Indian Railways is harming the entire public to harness its own coffers.The advance booking 120days prior t o the actual journey helps Railways interest free funds from general public who in their anxiety to book tickets lock their funds at least for 3 or 4 bookings on different dates as no body can pre plan their travel 4months in advance.


Even on the opening day of reservation only side upper berths are available making everybody to cancel the booking after sometime.Another big fraud is that for First AC, they only confirm the reservation without allotting berth on first come first served basis.


In nutshell, Indian Railways only encourage touts who form a coterie and book on different name and ages for all dates and share the tickets for a hefty sum at the time of journey.Indian Railways should first make advance reservation only 90days in advance and ID should be specifically incorporated for not only for lead members but also for all adults so that falsification of identity by touts and any manipulation can be totally avoided.


They should fix separate seats for online and booking at reservation counters.

It is very easy to book railway tickets
Apr 01, 2015 08:54 PM 19843 Views

Do you remember waking up early in the morning and going to the railway ticket booking center to stand in the queue well before its scheduled 8am opening time.


This was the scene a few years back when low-cost airlines had not invaded the Indian airspace and there were no online ticket booking portals either. The less written about the earlier avatar of the IRCTC site, the better it is. The scenario has completely changed in the last five to six years. Now booking a rail ticket is as simple as logging into one of the various ticket booking portals or either of the Indian Railways ticket reservation portals and voila within 5 minutes you have a ticket.


Add to that the fact that competition has forced travel portals to offer various add-on’s and offers. Low-cost airlines offer tickets, on premium routes, for as less as Rs. 3500 to Rs. 4000. This has completely changed the way Indians approach travel, business or pleasure. The entire planning of a trip can be done online. Starting with booking a cab to take you to the airport/railway station to booking a hotel room at your final destination and everythings


Please book your thicket from IRCTC
Sep 10, 2014 08:26 PM 20585 Views

Just now Ganpati Festival is over, one of my friend come back from it's village and he just start sharing its experience about what difficulties he face while booking tickets, when he is  sharing its experience I can't stop laughing, and why not?


If you have great facility providing by Indian railway then why you wasting your time by standing in a queue.So I advice him, next time when you want  TO BOOK YOUR TICKET Please visit Indian Railway site. It is really good website prepared by Indian railway, if you don't visit yet please  visit this site.really you can easily book your ticket from this site.


I asked him what you except when you go to book your ticket, he replied, within few seconds I want my ticket in my hand, I don't want to stand in queue.


So exactly what he want, this website is able to give him. this advice is not only for him but everyone  who want to book their ticket within a few minute, whit very few information, you can book your ticket, just make your account on website which is free, if you worry about security for the payment, don't worry they using good security for payment regarding bank information and etc.


within few seconds you can book your ticket, any layman can use this website, so just go for it you will never fill any difficulty.so its my advice to all of you, just visit this site and book your ticket, instead of standing in a queue for a whole day, again its not sure that you will get conform ticket.so waisting your valuable time, just try new, you will really get better result.


so please, please visit this website when you want to book you ticket.


thank you


Railway reservation-Good.but should be alot better
Sep 10, 2014 07:30 PM 19902 Views

The Railway reservation system in India has many flaws, but we should also look into the fact that managing a country of 1.25 billion with a large railway network is not the most easiest task.


So I ll be listing some flaws as well as some positive points about Indian Railways and how you have to deal with the flaws.


1) The online reservation system is a very good feature, because standing in Queues all the time and jostling away wasting your time is not the best thing to do, so the IRCTC website does help a great deal to book your tickets.


2) Tatkal: This facility is a great boon, if you consider the cases of emergency, but a lot of people do use it in a wrongful manner and the entry of agents into the reservation system is nothing less then a cancer for the whole system. The Site goes down at exactly 8:01 a.m and you have about 0.1% chance of getting a ticket, that too if your lucky.


On the other hand if you switch to an agent, first of all he would promise you a CONFIRMED ticket in the very first meeting. That in itself is a proof that there is a huge racket going on somewhere.


3)PNR status: The status enquiry feature is  a lot better than before, when you had to dial your PNR number over and over again to no avail. The website does give your status fairly easily.


ADVICES to Railways:


1) Try to pull out the Agent culture from the root, the system would be lot better and appreciatable.


2) Try to allow people to choose their own seats when making reservations Online, similar to what happens in BookMyShow.


Advices to Passengers:


1) Try to get a ticket 2 months in advance, in case of an emergency prefer an airline ticket paying a bit more rather than paying it to an agent.

Rich, elite and officials have all the comfort

Indian railways will become a formidable industry that has got a history of one hundred years.Rails not the flat road is the placed the moving train on rails, the rail never ends, it makes branches as it reaches stations and again the branched rails come back to make the moving train on the same track that is the destination destined and this feel of sure shot makes one to think and believe that there is no other suitable transport system that can match INDIAN RAILWAY SYSTEM. What is meant by Reservation.


Reservation was not at all known feel for most of Indians till two decades, idea of travel was not much in india and it was always possible to get a seat, berth or first class what ever was the choice of the persons concerned and no one ever complained on not getting a berth , seat, or first class, in fact Indians always were so simple minded, they did not mind not able to get the first class, or sleeper, then they would wait travelling in the general compartment, move to third class sleeper and if there was a chance to get first class for that also it was always possible to get desired berth class. WHY SO CERTAIN ON GETTING.


Yes trains moved very slow, most were passenger trains, or mail or express, what ever it was, one could be certian of contacting the TT if there was any vacancy, and TT would become close and friend to one because in each station that was important trains would stop from ten minutes to half an hour.


Train would wait for in coming train , as there was not many tracks to allow this train to move, single track all over the country was the main reason one had enough time to move his luggage, wife, children and so much time was there to place his heavy luggage, TT would signal the driver to wait, since this VIP who has changed the track from general compartment to sleeper or first class or what ever be, the sure reason made, reservation not yet when one started from home. WHY SO SLOW MOTION FILM HERE.


Yes I have experienced this factor how it was decades back, one would not panic, train would stop if they found you are still on the platform, of course your face revealed you are an important person elite and station masters always obliged to stop the train by whistle blow and ever adjusting drivers was the most safe feel for a person who never missed the train he was travelling. CHANGED TIMES.


Now so much improvement has taken place by not one time but thousand times, each station has facilities to cater to the need of all type of passengers, book stalls to canteens to cart shops that sells the required items like chips, chocolates and biscuits that Indians love to buy any time. Reservation the need of today. Today the engaged persons who want to travel has grown up so much, the train capacity is not enough and system of reservation alone can make a person to reach his destination, whether it is short distance or long distance, either way the rush of travelers is simply staggering. Types of reservation.


if you have good cash, there is possible chance to get what ever level you want, now we have AC first class, AC two tier, AC three tier, AC chair car, First class, second class three tier , the trains are very long, number of passengers in each train is running to full capacity and so much rush is there not one train between two stations, even small towns have more than three trains a day and of course one minimum train in the night time, this shows trust on rail travel is simply becoming matter of fact. Types one can reserve.


online from your mobile, by travel agent you phone and he takes your pan card number and book the ticket online paper less and on your mobile the reservation details is shown, the TT can check if it is there, so easy one can reserve from his home , try all type of alternate way to reach the destination. Not enough. The demand is ever increasing day by day, i feel it should reach ten times of the present, there is need of train every hour for at least from 6 am to 12 am , 36 trains from each place of starting can still cater to full capacity.


North Indians travel a lot. I appreciate the north Indians they work or stay in business but the link they have for their birth place is very deep and home sick type, they love to travel to their birth place at least once a month, this shows how much they trust railways, it is impossible to travel by bus to a place which is more than 300  km. In fact no matter how much a bus can cater seat comfort, nothing to beat train travel. SOUND LESS.


Today the bogeys are so efficient they don't rattle, crackle the way it used, it used to shake all the time before and so shaky it used to, suit cases would fall on ground, some who slept at ease had to feel the falling feel, all these is solved, now one can feel just like he is on a plane. Nearly feel of own room bed feel.


yes on such trains where AC first class and other air conditioned classes, the seats are very comfortable and journey is so soundless, one get instant sleep and since there is no disturbance one feel the joy of viewing the surface for our eyes. No other system can compete with Indian railways.


Natural growth has taken place within a period of one year, Each day one will be surprised on the track record of Indian railways thanks to reservation system. Railways always work 24 hours.


Taxi, no, auto no, plane no, but Indian railways is ever at service of the traveler, what ever happens, you can get into at least a general compartment, this cannot happen in bus travel, if you have no seat in a bus, have to cancel the journey, you may have any type of ticket still travel is possible in railways. India lives in train travel.


Bored in life, just get into reserve any place, ask the booking clerk, sir I am so bored, give me life, accept my money and send me to the favorite place that is possible to enjoy. He will put you into the best and comfortable coach and also it can be ac or first class.


Your life get changed once you can place your money to travel be it in first class or other classy class and the feel will be, oh, tired mind can find peace just by travelling in a train.


Book instant for peace of mind, no other travel can give this kind of comfort where any Indian understands you.
