Original title: Railway 12306 optimizes and upgrades the function of standby ticket purchase, further improves the success rate of passenger ticket purchase, and the combination of standby orders increases from 10 to 60
According to the railway 12306 science and technology innovation center, since 0:00 on January 11, the railway 12306 website (including mobile phone client) has optimized and upgraded the function of waiting for tickets, increased the number of waiting orders and alternatives, expanded the selection range of waiting order fulfillment time, and temporarily added passenger train seats have been given priority to passengers who have submitted waiting orders to further improve the success rate of passenger waiting for tickets.
The relevant person in charge of the railway 12306 science and technology innovation center introduced that in order to improve the passenger ticket buying experience, the railway department increased its research and development efforts and optimized and upgraded the function of the railway 12306 alternate ticket buying.
First, increase the number of standby orders. The number of waiting orders that can be submitted by each passenger increases from 2 to 6, and each order can add up to 9 passengers.
The second is to increase the number of alternatives. When the original passenger submits a waiting order, he can select two adjacent boarding dates, and each date can select five combinations of "train number+seat", up to 10 combinations can be selected. After optimization and upgrading, passengers can choose any three travel dates within the pre-sale period, and can select up to 60 combinations of "date+train number" accumulatively. Each train number can choose multiple seats.
Third, expand the range of time options for waiting order fulfillment. The original deadline for waiting orders was 2 hours before the start of the car at the latest. After optimization and upgrading, it was adjusted to 20 minutes before the start of the car. Passengers can choose to modify the deadline in a larger range according to the actual situation.
Fourth, temporary new passenger train seats shall be preferentially allocated to passengers who have submitted standby orders. When submitting a waiting order, passengers can choose to accept the purchase of new passenger train tickets that meet the travel needs. For example, when the railway department temporarily adds new passenger trains, when the tickets are sold, the railway 12306 will automatically give priority to the passengers who have submitted a waiting order, and passengers do not need to manually query the information of the additional trains before purchasing tickets.
