Yes, you read it right. For this, you just have to click on automatic upgrade while booking the ticket. If you have booked a sleeper class ticket through IRCTC’s auto upgrade facility and it is in waiting or RAC. But there are vacant seats in the AC coach, then at the time of charting the system will automatically upgrade you to third AC.
No extra charge will be required
The biggest thing is that you do not have to pay any kind of charge for this. Apart from this, passengers of 3AC or 2AC can also be upgraded to 1AC. However, the upgrade will happen only when the seats are vacant.
When you are booking tickets through IRCTC’s website or app, make sure to select the option “Consider for Auto Upgradation”. If the ticket is upgraded, the PNR number will remain the same, but the coach and seat will change. However, it is important to note that this facility is not applicable on railway quota tickets.
Why such a facility in railways?
The aim of Indian Railways is to make better use of empty seats through this facility. The best thing is that passengers do not have to pay any extra money for this upgrade. In such a situation, people will always want to get a chance to travel from sleeper to AC. Also, this helps passengers on the waiting list to get confirmed tickets.
If you are also traveling by train next time and your booking is in waiting or RAC in sleeper or third AC, then while booking the ticket, definitely tick the box for auto upgrade.
