PNR Status Explained: PNR is an abbreviation for Passenger Name Record.
PNR is a record of travel for a passenger or group of passenger. A PNR
number is generated against each booking. PNR number is also generated
in case of non-confirm booking. PNR is also generated for online booking
or booking made through Indian Railways Counter. The PNR information is
stored in the database. PNR is of 10-digits unique number and having
only digits from 0 to 9.
In Indian
Railways advance booking is allows up to 90 days before the actual train
start date. Passenger should book a ticket well advance to get a
confirmed ticket. If confirm ticket is not available, Railway provides a
ticket with RAC (Reservation Against Cancellation) OR WL (Wait List) ticket. Both RAC or WL ticket also have a PNR number.
Reservation Against Cancellation (RAC)
means a passenger does not have a reserved berth. RAC only confirm that
a seating capacity will be provide for sure. Also, RAC tickets will be
confirmed first against each cancellation. Depending on the number of
wait listed passengers, RAC tickets will be upgraded to confirm ticket.
In RAC, Railways allot a single berth to 2 passengers for sitting. RAC
passengers are allowed to board the train. Ticket Checker present in the
train can also allot the free seat for those passengers, who are unable
to board the train.
Wait List (WL)
means that a passenger will not get the confirmed berth or seating
accommodation. On every cancellation free berth will be first allotted
to RAC Passengers. After RAC passengers, berth will be allotted to Wait
List passengers in terms to their waiting number. The number of wait
list for each train may vary. When maximum number of wait list will be
crossed a REGRET status will come. This REGRET status define that no
further booking is allowed in the train.
