Hey guys can someone help me understand if it's worth waiting to book tatkal for train running between Bangalore and Thalassery on 22nd Dec. Online status says ticket availability as REGRET, does this mean no tickets so Tatkal also won't be available? It means that further booking is not allowed! Regret/WL 1 means no booking allowed at any time and not further booking not allowed. IR can change this with Booking not allowed text. But does not know what is the reason when booking in not allowed they are showing this message. Want to know from experts the reason behind this. REGRET/WL என்று இருந்தால் இதற்கு மேல் முன்பதிவு செய்ய இயலாது என்று அர்த்தம். | doubt of common man: can you explain the abbreviations mentioned during train reservation? In the context of IRCTC, "regret" refers to a status that appears when the reservation system cannot accept new booking requests for a train because it has exceeded the waitlist capacity for that train. This means that no booking is allowed at any time, and further booking is not allowed.
