From Tomorrow Advance Reservation Period for Booking Reserved Train Tickets increased from 60 Days to 120 Days
The Ministry of Railways has decided to increase the Advance Reservation Period (ARP) for booking accommodation in trains from 60 days to 120 days (excluding the date of journey). Accordingly, from tomorrow i.e 1st April 2015 the booking in trains from train originating stations will open and remain available for 120 days. For instance, as on 1.4.2015, for trains leaving on 28th July 2015, the reservation can be obtained for journey commencing on all days between 1.4.2015 upto 28.7.2015.
There will, however, be no change in case of certain day time Express trains like Taj Express, Gomti Express, special trains etc, where lower time limits for advance reservations are at present in force. There will also be no change in the case of the limit of 360 days for foreign tourists.
Implementing in advance reservation policy from 60 to 120 days enhanced the biggest problem to get the confirm reservation for defence personal as there is non posibility to grant their leave before four months so they could not be issued with FRW/CVS before this long period to get his reservation.
