Now You Can Travel To Multiple Destinations With A Single Ticket, Checkout The Facility Provided By IRTC

Millions of travelers use the Indian Railways every day to go where they’re going. However, few travelers are not aware of all the facilities offered by railways to ease travel. Similar to that, many travelers are ignorant of and rarely use the Circular Journey Ticket. According to the Indian Railways website, www.indianrail.gov.in, this service is provided by the IRCTC for all trips (aside from scheduled routes) that start and end at the same station.

Benefits of Circular Journey Tickets

  • This facility is appropriate for both solo and group travelers, but especially for those going on a pilgrimage or sightseeing tour.
  • The Railways Circular Journey feature includes two separate journeys. Each journey is seen as taking up half of the total distance.
  • These are available for all routes except the regular ones.
  • The ticket covers up to 8 stations/stoppage points.
  • It is necessary for the start and end stations to match. The rate of each ticket incorporated within the Circular Journey ticket is telescopic, i.e, for more stations included in your itinerary, the lesser will be the price of each inclusive ticket.
  • A circular journey ticket is therefore less expensive than the sum of the prices of the individual tickets purchased separately.

How to book Circular Journey Ticket?

  • When your travel plans are complete, you can speak with the Divisional Commercial Manager of the Division of a few key stations, which includes the station where your journey begins.
  • The cost of the tickets will thereafter be determined by the Divisional Commercial Manager or the station authorities using your itinerary. In a format specified, he will also provide the same information to the Station Manager.
  • By submitting this form at the booking office of the station where you plan to begin your journey, you can get circular journey tickets.
  • You must go to the Reservation Office after buying the circular journey ticket in order to make reservations for your accommodation throughout various laps of your journey.
  • A reserved journey ticket will subsequently be given to you for the trip.
  • A Circular Journey Ticket is charged for as two single journeys, the length of each single journey being taken as half of the total distance.
  • 40% concession for male Senior Citizens and 50% concession for female Senior Citizens are granted on the cost of the Circular Journey Tickets when travelling a minimum distance of 1000 kms.
