Indian Railways: How Passengers Can Shift to AC Coaches With Sleeper Ticket

Indian Railways: Planning a tour or a trip to your hometown? Booked a train ticket? Then we're about to tell you about an amazing feature. You can travel in an AC coach with a sleeper class ticket. Let's find out how! 

Sleeper ticket on a train journey

Ever wanted to travel in AC with a sleeper ticket? You can do it for the same price! Just pick the auto-upgradation option when booking. In the past, you only got a berth in the class you booked.

Ticket automatically canceled

If your chosen coach is full, you might get upgraded to a higher class if there's a vacant seat. The best part? You don't have to pay any extra charges for this upgrade.

Auto-upgradation option

For example, with auto-upgradation, if you book a sleeper ticket and it's full, you might get a vacant berth in Third AC. This isn't just for sleeper; 3AC can get upgraded to 2AC, and 2AC to 1AC.

Only in higher coaches

This upgrade only happens if there are empty seats in a higher class. Many people have already traveled in 3rd AC with a sleeper ticket using this. Remember, this is only for online IRCTC bookings.
