Can there be any generic video tutorial that can explain the entire online bus booking process right from typing the web address to payment gateway and then ticket confirmation? Well I have recently come across one such YouTube Tutorial when I was searching about KSRTC Online Booking. I have already explained the reason why one should book tickets online. It is an integral part today and one must use this service for saving is/hers precious time.

How to book Bus Tickets Online

A big question that comes to play here is that can there be any generic tutorial that can cover all the transport organizations throughout the country? Well I can't answer it because the website design will be different for each website but the process behind booking tickets is almost similar. So to some extent I will say YES, yes there can be a generic video tutorial that can cover the process (not exact step by step guide) that is used to book bus tickets online. The video that is shown here is for KSRTC.

Process involves:

• Opening site
• Visiting Book Ticket tab (in most of the website, this option will be listed on homepage itself)
• Entering travel details like dates, time etc
• Selecting Bus type
• Choosing seat number
• Login to confirm seats/selection
• Payment through any online gateway

These are the usual steps that runs behind every online bus booking process. You can watch below video for more information:

Why to book buses online?

Silly question, isn't it? But believe me still lot of people asks this question. I mean when they can book offline tickets which according to them is way much safer way than sharing bank details online then why to go with online system. I will try to answer this query here.

Today is the era of online things. If you have noticed good then you will find that everything is slowly and slowly coming to online platform. Today you can pay your electric bills online, can book movie tickets online, can transfer money online. Why did we need to shift to online mode when everything was working well offline (at least according to a defined group, offline systems were running fine). All I can say in two world is "Time Saving." Today's life style is such that one don't have time for their beloved ones. So if they follow those old rules of offline world then they will not find time for themselves also.

I work in IT industry and I know the importance of time. Sitting relax in office and clearing all the bills online is something that I love and find very comfortable and time saving.

Bus Tickets Online, is it the right practice?

Now coming to online bus bookings then today almost every state transport corporation is providing the option of online bus booking facilities. There are some third party vendors for the same but I will not talk about them as when we can go with the officials then why to go with third party. I mean if something wrong happens then you will be in safe hands of official organizations.

I can see various transport portals today. Personally I would advise you to go with the official portals only. In some cases if something is wrong with official portals then you can prefer some trusted vendors like RedBus, Yatra etc Please let me know if you need the complete list.

By booking your bus tickets online you have the option of availing various offers, discounts. I mean by booking your tickets offline, you will not find any discounts, lucky draws etc but by booking them online (especially with third party vendors) you always have the option of availing discounts and taking part in promotional offers which eventually means saving.

So these are some points that forces me to use online services for booking bus tickets. If you have different opinion then please write down here.
