In a groundbreaking move towards modernising the rail travel experience, Railway Minister Shahid Ashraf Tarar officially launched the "RABTA" mobile application.
The acronym stands for Railway Automated Booking and Travel Assistance, symbolizing the Pakistan Railways' commitment to enhancing passenger convenience and connectivity.
This innovative application is set to revolutionize the way passengers plan and execute their journeys, allowing them to seamlessly organize their trips from the comfort of their homes. PR Secretary, Mazhar Ali Shah, enthusiastically shared the news on social media, describing the RABTA app as an "innovative platform to revolutionize the way you plan & experience your journey."
Comprehensive travel solutions at fingertips
The initial phase of the RABTA app includes connectivity for three major train routes, featuring the prestigious Greenline train that shuttles between Islamabad and Karachi.
Additionally, two railcars servicing the Lahore-Islamabad-Lahore route have also been integrated into the application's network.
Passengers can now enjoy the convenience of booking tickets, hotels, taxis, and meals directly through the RABTA app, promising a hassle-free and comprehensive travel experience.
The application is poised to streamline the entire travel process, making it more accessible and user-friendly for individuals embarking on Pakistan Railways' journeys.
PR officials have expressed their commitment to expanding the RABTA app's coverage by integrating the remaining trains into the application in the coming days.
