Railway Spring Festival travel rush Peak will pre-sell student return train tickets in 10 city from today.
The first trial of this measure will directly benefit more than 500,000 students in Beijing 100 universities.
This year, thousands of foreign college students flocked to Beijing during their stay in Spring Festival travel rush, so Beijing will not have to worry about the difficulty of going back to Beijing to buy tickets after the holiday. The reporter learned from the Ministry of Railways that starting today, the railway will try to handle the student return ticket for the first time. This measure will benefit students from more than 700 universities and research institutes in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other cities 10, among which more than 100 universities in Beijing will benefit. It is estimated that there will be more than 500 thousand students handling round-trip train tickets.
The reservation of the ticket amount is guaranteed to the maximum extent.
In order to facilitate winter vacation students to purchase tickets, under the extremely tight transportation capacity in Spring Festival travel rush this year, the railway tried to handle post-holiday return tickets for ordinary universities and research institutes in Beijing, Tianjin, Changchun, Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuhan, Guangzhou, Chongqing, Chengdu and Xi 'an according to the principle of focusing on solving the concentrated areas of universities. Students who buy tickets to go home at the school location can also buy tickets from home after the peak in Spring Festival travel rush. The Ministry of Railways requires all railway bureaus to go all out, make proper arrangements in advance in terms of capacity allocation, and give the greatest guarantee in terms of ticket booking.
A few days before June 5438+February 3, 2006/KLOC-0, the relevant railway bureaus have organized colleges and universities to hold a working meeting on centralized handling of winter vacation student tickets, to inform colleges and universities of the process of handling student return tickets, and to clarify the time, place, acceptance station, contact person, specific train number, ticket amount, restricted sales section and relevant regulations. Non-centralized students can buy return tickets separately at the special ticket window of the designated station, but they must show their college student ID card and the train ticket student discount card issued by the Ministry of Education. The return ticket station is tentatively set as a station with the capacity of direct train departure.
Private colleges and universities can also concentrate on buying return tickets.
The reporter learned from Beijing Railway Bureau that since the end of May 438+February last year, colleges and universities in this city have successively submitted student ticket booking forms through the Internet according to the relevant requirements of the railway department. At present, more than one university 100, such as Peking University, Tsinghua and People's Congress, has submitted applications, which are basically regular universities with discount cards issued by the Ministry of Education. According to the passenger flow forecast, the student flow in Spring Festival travel rush Peak and Beijing in 2007 will increase compared with last year. It is estimated that there will be about 500,000 students leaving Beijing before the holiday, and there will be about 3 1 10,000 train tickets for students leaving Beijing, mainly to Shanghai, Hangzhou, Wenzhou, Fuzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing, Xi, Changsha, Guangzhou, Nanning, Kunming, Lanzhou, Urumqi, Nanchang and Harbin. According to the booking situation, the Beijing Railway Department will open more student trains and temporary passengers to meet the needs of students.
Beijing Railway Bureau has not excluded private colleges and universities from the scope of handling student return tickets. Colleges and universities that do not enjoy preferential student tickets, if there is a demand for student group tickets, can manually submit a summary of student group ticket reservation to the ticket management office of Beijing Railway Bureau with a letter of introduction from the unit, and centrally handle train tickets and return tickets leaving Beijing, but they do not enjoy half-price concessions and can only purchase tickets at full price.
Insufficient transport capacity restricts the full implementation of return tickets.
Due to the shortage of railway transportation capacity during Spring Festival travel rush, handling student return tickets can only be tried out in 10 city, and many college students cannot benefit, let alone bring convenience to many ordinary tourists. According to railway insiders, it is troublesome to settle the ticket amount between different railway bureaus, and at the same time, it is necessary to avoid the shortage of tickets in other originating cities due to the large number of return tickets. Therefore, the railway department has been strictly controlling the pre-sale of return tickets. This time, it broke the convention and grabbed tickets for Spring Festival travel rush, a student.
