If you want to book a seat in Barabati
Stadium to watch an IPL match or to see a movie in a cinema hall, it’s just a
click away. You need not reach a few hours early and stand in a long queue in
scorching heat to buy tickets. Websites such as bookticketnow, bookmyshow and kyazoonga
provide a service to book tickets online.
PVR, Big Cinema, Fun Cinema and Inox multiplexes
have their own sites for booking movie tickets.
Booking tickets online could be
a little costlier because these sites charge a fee for processing the service
and the bank also charges some money for online transactions. These charges vary
from website to website and bank to bank. In most of these websites, the
charges range from twenty rupees per ticket to hundred rupees and most of the
banks charge twenty rupees per transaction.
Some of these sites provide you with a
facility to book tickets for dramas, theatre shows, sports events, musical
concerts, workshops, sports camps and live shows. These sites have a calendar
of events with their details for events scheduled in upcoming months.
People can book flight, train and even bust
tickets on the Internet. Indian Railways Catering and Tourism Corporation
Limited (IRCTC) is one of the most visited website for booking train tickets.
Recently, the website has begun its flight booking service too. Passengers from
Mumbai can book season tickets too.
Makemytrip.com, Yatra.com, Goibibo,
Cleartrip and Travel Guru are among the leading players providing online ticket
booking services. Travellers can not only book tickets online but also know the
details of the hotel rooms available within their budget. Many state transport
departments have their own websites for providing online bus ticket booking
service. Redbus.in is a website that
provides a service for booking seats in buses run by private transporters.
Apart from this there are several other
online booking services that make life easy. You are expecting guests at your
home during the weekend and your LPG cylinder is expected to run out of gas. You
don’t have time to go to the refilling centre to book a new cylinder. You can
do this online and the cylinder will be delivered to you at your doorstep. However,
for the time being, people are linked with a few selected refilling centres.
