Research on festival railway ticket quota in different ways

摘要

During festivals and the other holidays, there are prominent contradictions between the supply and the demand of railway tickets. Due to the culture level differing from multiple social strata, people are different on requirement ways of buying tickets. The paper investigated and analyzed the interval time of arrival and service of passengers in train station and used the queuing theory to calculate the time costs and sunk costs on buying tickets. According to the rigid demand features of railway tickets in the holidays, we could get an optimal quota scheme of various ticketing ways, which meets the degree of satisfaction and requirement of time of each social stratum.
