It seems like we're stuck with Indian members coming here and listing their demands as if they're speaking to a travel agent.

So can we start charging these same members for this service?

Maybe not, I'd have to be polite if we did.

You can get an overnight train from Secunderabad to Bhadrachalam Road station, part of the Machilipatnam Express (Dep SC 22:45) gets detached at Dornakal and arrives at Bhadrachalam Road at 04:50, I think the station is 15-20kms from the town, the train has 3-tier air con and Sleeper Class.

I very much doubt there will be enough water in the Godavari in 1st week of June for boat trips.
