General Refund Policy Guidelines
Our refund policy follows terms and conditions of specific train services we represent. As an independent booking platform, we facilitate refunds according to these policies while providing customers clear guidance and support throughout the process.
Refund Eligibility Factors
Refund eligibility depends on multiple factors including fare type, cancellation timing, service category, and cancellation reason. Flexible fares typically offer better refund terms than discount fares.
Refund Processing Times
After refund approval, processing varies: credit card refunds take 7-14 business days, debit cards 5-10 business days, with other payment methods varying by provider.
Payment Method Returns
Refunds issue to the original payment method used for booking. We cannot transfer refunds to different payment methods or provide cash refunds for card transactions.
Cancellation Timelines & Refund Amounts
Refund amounts depend on when you cancel relative to departure time. Below are general guidelines, though specific policies may vary by train service and fare type.
More Than 30 Days Before Departure
Full refund of ticket price (minus non-refundable service fees). Flexible fares receive 100% refund, while discount fares may have minimal cancellation charges.
15-30 Days Before Departure
Most fares receive 75-90% refund. Discount fares may have higher cancellation fees. Sleeping accommodations often have specific policies during this period.
7-14 Days Before Departure
Standard refunds of 50-75% for flexible fares. Discount fares may only qualify for travel credits. Additional fees may apply for sleeping accommodation changes.
1-7 Days Before Departure
Limited refund options - typically 25-50% for flexible fares. Most discount fares become non-refundable but may qualify for travel credits with change fees.
Less Than 24 Hours / No-Show
Generally non-refundable. Some flexible fares may offer partial refunds or travel credits. Missed trains typically do not qualify for refunds.
Important Note: These represent general guidelines. Specific cancellation policies for your booking appear in your reservation confirmation and derive from actual train service provider terms.
Non-Refundable Items & Fees
Certain booking components remain non-refundable under most circumstances:
Service Fees
Our booking service fees are generally non-refundable once your reservation processes, as they cover reservation service costs.
Non-Refundable Fares
Deeply discounted fares explicitly marked non-refundable at purchase may qualify for travel credits in specific cases.
Special Services
Fees for special services like pet accommodations or special meals may be non-refundable if arranged in advance.
Processing Fees
Transaction processing fees for payment methods are non-refundable as they cover bank and payment gateway charges.
Special Circumstances & Exceptions
Service Disruptions
If train service cancels or delays significantly, you qualify for full ticket price refunds or rescheduling on next available service at no additional cost.
Weather Issues
For official weather-related cancellations, full refunds apply. For voluntary cancellations during operating services, standard policies apply.

When train service is officially canceled by the provider, you receive a full ticket price refund. We automatically process refunds for affected customers. You may also reschedule on the next available service without penalty.
