booking on makemytrip.com

worthyquest · Sep 24th, 2009, 03:52

has anyone had any experiences with booking rail tickets on makemytrip.com? i was on the site booking a flight and saw they have railway bookings now. much easier interface --- and since the indian railways site kept cutting out on me last night AND refusing my payments, also perhaps better technically.

I have booked on cleartrip. Didnt faced any issues as such. It is just that they charge Rs 20-30 extra than Irctc.co.in.

There is no direct train from Raichur to Vasco or even Madgaon. You may have to take a train to Hubli and from Hubli take another bus or train.

?

on make my trip, you just enter station names, just like with airlines. it will prompt you to choose after the first few letters. if you are not coming up successful, it may be because you are choosing the wrong station. for example, howrah is the station a tourist would usually be going to in kolkata, not one of the other kolkata stations.

I think Makemytrip is a very good site. The best part of getting your Rail Tickets booked with Makemytrip is that you can book a return ticket (2 Way Ticket) at one go..

This facility is not available of other travel sites
1. IRCTC
2. Cleartrip
3. Yatra
5. IXIGO
5. Travelguru etc
