Change in rules for booking train tickets: MakeMyTrip has made many new technological discoveries to make train travel easier. Now MakeMyTrip has come up with many new features to overcome the problems faced by passengers in booking tickets. They have divided the entire ticket booking process into different stages and have made things easier by using technology at every stage. One of these special features is 'Seat Lock'. This is a completely new feature, with the help of which you can confirm your seat by paying only 25% of the total ticket price. You will have to pay the remaining amount 24 hours before the journey.
MakeMyTrip's 'Connected Travel' feature
Another problem while booking train tickets is that you do not always get a confirmed ticket on your preferred date and direct train. In such a situation, you are left with very few options. This problem is solved by MakeMyTrip's 'Connected Travel' feature. This feature suggests multiple routes combining bus and train travel. These suggestions also take into account layover time and the entire travel time.
MakeMyTrip co-founder said this
Rajesh Magowan, Co-Founder and Group CEO, MakeMyTrip said, “We at MakeMyTrip are committed to making train travel even better and making every trip memorable. We have covered the entire train travel experience, including planning and choosing the right train, buying tickets and everything before the journey. With our innovative features at every stage of train booking and travel, we are committed to giving travellers more choice, convenience and comfort. Our aim is to make train travel easy, convenient and fun.
'Route Extension Assistance'
Another new feature is 'Route Extension Assistance'. It is built using MakeMyTrip's own technology. This feature suggests alternate routes in case you don't get a seat on your preferred train. For example, if a confirmed ticket from station A to B is not available, this feature can show you a ticket from station A to C on the same train. You can get off at station B as it falls on the route. Usually it is difficult for users to find such routes on their own. Now you don't have to look at the route map and train combination separately.
