长途“有票”，短途却“无票”？12306回应

Core Viewpoint - The railway ticketing strategy of China Railway 12306 prioritizes long-distance travel while accommodating short-distance needs, leading to a situation where long-distance tickets are available but short-distance tickets may not be [1][2]. Group 1: Ticketing Strategy - The strategy involves a three-phase ticket sales process for long-distance trains, focusing on meeting the needs of long-distance travelers first [1]. - "Long-distance priority" allocates most tickets to the starting station or nearby stations, ensuring that long-distance travelers are prioritized [2]. - "Accommodating short-distance" involves pre-allocating and dynamically adjusting ticket quotas to ensure fairness for short-distance travelers [2]. Group 2: Ticket Allocation Process - Pre-allocation of tickets involves distributing approximately 20% of tickets to nearby stations before sales begin, based on historical passenger flow data [2]. - Dynamic adjustment occurs one day after ticket sales start, redistributing remaining long-distance tickets to areas with high demand for short-distance travel [2]. - Open sales of remaining long-distance tickets occur one day or on the day of departure, following a "first-come, first-served" principle for those who have submitted requests for tickets [2].
