"One double sale" refers to a train ticket for the same seat that is incorrectly sold to two different passengers in the rail ticketing system. This should theoretically not happen, because the official ticketing system of China Railways 12306 adopts a real-time update and seat lock mechanism to ensure that the same ticket will not be repeated in the same time period**.
However, a female netizen in Guangdong bought a train ticket for the same train and the same seat at the same time with an uncle on January 31. Although the journey was short, similar ticketing errors still caused concern among netizens who were preparing to go home for the New Year: What if I also bought the same ticket?Who's sitting and who's standing?Will it cause contradictions?
In practice, if you purchase train tickets through a third-party ticketing platform, due to factors such as network delays, untimely data synchronization, or ticket-grabbing software, multiple platforms may consider themselves to have successfully booked the same seat in a very short period of time. This usually happens during peak periods such as the Spring Festival, when there is a high demand for tickets and high pressure on the system.
During the extremely busy traffic period such as the Spring Festival, the problem of data synchronization lag occurred in the interaction process of the 12306 system, which led to the occurrence of repeated ticket purchases.
For such problems, railway departments and ticketing platforms should strengthen technical docking and optimize service processes to avoid the recurrence of similar situations.
In the event of a "one sale", please stay calm and do not quarrel with each other. This is an error of the railway department's ** platform and the third-party platform, and the train service personnel should be informed at the same time as contacting the ticketing platform or railway customer service in time. The appropriate train staff will take care of the problem for you right away.
