IRCTC POD Stays
Why are Pod stays different?
Which services are offered at Pod stays?
To be honest, passengers don’t really expect much from pod stays that are priced aggressively to offer budget yet comfortable stays to passengers. The pods are designed in such a way to provide a comfortable overnight sleep to travellers. However, passengers can expect basic facilities such as free Wi-Fi, shared toilets, showroom rooms, television, mirror, air conditioner, charging slots and more.
What types of pods will IRCTC offer?
Which pod will you need to book?
Passengers travelling solo can book one of the 30 Classic Pods depending on the availability. Solo female travellers can book one of the seven Ladies only pods. For couples, IRCTC will provide a total of 10 private pods. Moreover, the differently-abled pod will provide disabled passengers with space enough for the free movement of a wheelchair.
