"sure shot ticket". assuming no changes in future plan and having advance reservation plan like 1-2 months before. And if extreme emergency is there one may lose 50% after charting also...kindly try to travel in 2ac in any trunk routes and then by air...see the difference

Re# 1516554-47              
Only point you are missing here , the topic is of 2A/1A AC class train vs flight tickets. Its very much cleared in many cases flights are chepaer now. Even for 10 days before also flights in many sectors now cheaper than AC class.
Regarding train travelling maza, ya may be for some. But may nit be for some. It depends, because a family caring a little baby in a train for 30 hrs is much much difficult for them surely train journey head ache. Like that there are many cases.
