Salient Features of The Up-gradation Scheme of Railway Tickets to The higher Class

 

 With a view to optimise the utilisation of available accommodation in train, a scheme to upgrade full-fare paying passengers to the higher class without any extra charge against the available vacant accommodation is available in almost Mail / Express trains.

• The passengers are required to give the option for being considered for upgradation. If no option is given at the time of filling up of requisition form, the same is treated as ‘yes’ and passenger(s) can be considered for upgradation.

• The passengers for upgradation are selected automatically (except in cases where the passenger has shown his unwillingness to be upgraded) on random basis by the System at the time of preparation of reservation charts.

• In case there are not enough eligible confirmed passengers who have opted for upgradation. RAC/Waiting list passengers can be upgraded irrespective of the choice given by them.

• All the passengers on a ticket are upgraded together.

• It is not done for block booking transactions.

• If a passenger, who has been upgraded, cancels his ticket, cancellation charges of the original class only are payable. It Is advisable to avail the facility (by exercising the option In the affirmative) and always to check the status (coach/ berth numbers) before boarding the train.
