Goodbye paper tickets! Hubei railway enters the era of electronic ticket

On November 19, it was learned from China Railway Wuhan Bureau Group Co., Ltd. that since November 20, 9 stations along the line, including Hankou station and Houhu station, as well as 11 stations along Macheng north station and Hong'an west station of Hefei Wuhan passenger dedicated line, have taken the lead in piloting online e-tickets and no paper tickets will be issued. The stations along the Hanshi high-speed railway are installing commissioning equipment, and it is expected that electronic tickets will be launched at the end of the month.

e-ticket, also known as "paperless" ticket, can be taken by passengers only with valid ID card or QR code received by mobile phone after purchasing tickets without taking tickets after they order tickets through the Internet. Wuhan railway authorities said that e-ticket is to separate the three voucher functions of passenger transport contract, boarding and reimbursement carried by the original paper ticket, so as to realize the electronization of transport contract voucher, paperless boarding voucher and on-demand provision of reimbursement voucher. After the implementation of e-ticket, it will be more convenient and efficient for passengers to purchase tickets, check-in tickets and take buses

When the passenger holds the household registration certificate or children's ticket which cannot be read automatically, he / she can enter or leave the station through the manual check-in exit In the
ride, the passenger must take the seat according to the car number and seat number displayed in the ticket information. If the ticket needs to be changed or refunded, the passenger who purchases the ticket by electronic payment and does not exchange for the reimbursement voucher can change the ticket by himself or herself through 12306 website or 12306 client; the passenger less than 25 minutes before driving, who purchases the ticket in cash or prints the reimbursement voucher before driving, must go to the designated window of the station for handling
if the reimbursement voucher is required, it shall be printed at the ticket window, automatic ticket vending machine and ticket agency window of the station within 30 days before the train starts or after the train starts. If it has not been printed for more than 30 days, you can contact the railway 12306 customer service center.
