Ticket-related
Is it mandatory to take a printout of the ticket?

It depends on the bus operator you have booked your ticket with. Even mTickets are available on Duniya Trip. For operators that support mTickets, the SMS that is sent to your mobile can be produced at the time of boarding and you will be allowed to travel.

For operators that do not support mTickets it is a must to take a printout of the e-ticket and produce it at the time of boarding. The e-ticket is sent to the e-mail ID provided at the time of boarding.

To know which operators are mTicket enabled, look for the mTicket icon under the mTicket column while searching for buses.

I've lost my ticket. What should I do now?

A copy of the ticket would have been sent to you by e-mail when you booked it. Please take a printout of that mail and produce it at the time of boarding. If you have not received the ticket e-mail, please call any of our call centers and our executive will re-send you a copy by mail.
