Diwali is just around the corner, and many people start booking train tickets well in advance to be with their families.
However, due to work or study commitments, booking can get delayed, making it harder to secure tickets—especially on busy routes like those to UP and Bihar.
To avoid this hassle, here are three simple tips to help you book confirmed tickets quickly and easily.
Download and Prepare the IRCTC App
Start by downloading the IRCTC app and logging in. Save your route and train details in advance to avoid searching for them repeatedly.
This simple step will speed up the booking process, ensuring you don’t waste time during peak hours.
Create a Master List of Travelers
If you’re traveling with family or friends, create a master list of passengers. This list should include names, berth preferences, and meal choices. You can easily set this up in the ‘My Profile’ section of the IRCTC app.
Having a master list will save you time by auto-filling passenger details during booking.
Use UPI or e-Wallet for Quick Payments
When it comes to payment, using a UPI wallet is faster and more convenient than internet banking, which requires entering multiple login details and OTPs.
You can also use IRCTC’s e-Wallet for an even quicker checkout, bypassing the need for external net banking options.
