What does the waiting list for high-speed rail tickets mean? Can I get on the bus? What is a backup ticket?

The standby high-speed rail ticket means that when passengers buy high-speed rail tickets online, all the train tickets they want to buy have been sold out. At this time, they can book high-speed rail tickets according to their travel needs and pay the corresponding advance payment. It should be noted that the standby ticket for the high-speed rail means that there is no ticket and it is impossible to enter the station.

When passengers book spare tickets online, the system will automatically help passengers snap up tickets. If passengers change their tickets or refund tickets during the pre-sale period of this train, the system will help passengers to snap up tickets. When the tickets are snapped up successfully, passengers will be notified by SMS. If you don't get the ticket, you will be informed by SMS.

Generally, when booking standby tickets, the system will use three colors to prompt, namely red, yellow and green. Red means there are more people in the queue at present, yellow means there are moderate people in the queue, and green means there are fewer people in the queue. Usually, when there are few people waiting in line, the probability of the system successfully grabbing tickets will be higher, and passengers can decide whether to book spare tickets according to different colors.

If passengers want to increase their chances of success in the process of snapping up tickets, it is recommended to submit more waiting lists. In these waiting sequences, you can choose different departure times, trains and seats, especially during rush hours, to help you buy tickets smoothly without affecting your itinerary.
