School holidays
I just booked a ticket from Bangalore to Goa on April 28, with WL40/19 (sleeper class), only to find out that school holidays are still going on.
Apparently waitlists clear really slowly during school holidays. Is this true? With 8 days to go before my train, is there any chance that 19+ people will cancel? Thanks! |

These things are tough to predict. All i know is, you don't need 19 people to cancel to clear your waiting list. During chart preparation (4 hrs before departure) additional seats from emergency quota, new coaches, etc. are pooled and the some wait listed seats cleared. I still wouldn't know how likely or unlikely your confirmation is.
