AGARTALA, June 11 (TIWN): Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) on its historic scheme, tied up with the GoAir and Spicejet to offer air line tickets to the wait-listed train passengers. The flight tickets would be made available only for the day of the train journey or a day after that. Passengers booking train tickets right from sleeper class to AC classes can avail the facility, said the official source.
According to the official sources here the scheme taken up by the IRCTC, applies to the tickets, which are booked at least three days prior to the date of the journey. The flight tickets would be made available only for the day of the train journey or a day after that.
However, with another boon for the domestic carriers and the train passengers, who can now reach their destination without having to abort their trip, the IRCTC had decided to tie up with the two airline companies – GoAir and Spicejet.
As per the scheme the airlines would be placing their unsold tickets with IRCTC. IRCTC would be sending e-mails to waitlisted passengers who seek to avail the benefit under the scheme.
IRCTC is offering passengers, who fail to get their waitlisted ticket confirmed and giving options to convert it into an airline ticket at a competitive fare.
