高铁分段购票升一等座,女子全程只能站着?当事人:车内换座遇阻,两节车厢不互通;12306:无法补偿

近日,有网友发帖称“一等座的我站了全程”,引发关注。
A passenger on train D655 stood for an hour despite holding a first-class ticket, after discovering that the train's two coupled units do not connect and the service would not stop before her destination.


当事人称,她于11月1日乘坐D655次列车,先买了湖州到杭州东3车厢的二等座,接着买了同趟车9车厢杭州东到宁波的一等座。
按照以往经验,这段路通常会有几个停靠站。但当天,这趟车从杭州东发车后一路直达宁波,中途不停。 她准备从3车厢走去9车厢时,却在8、9车厢连接处被挡住了。 她这才知道, 自己坐的是8+8重联列车:1到8节是一组,9到16节是另一组,两列车拼接在一起,中间不互通。 想换组,只能等列车到站停靠时,从站台上绕过去。

由于这趟列车中途不停车,她无法下车绕行。原来的二等座也让出去了,无奈之下, 她只能花一等座的钱,在车厢站了一小时抵达宁波 。
The passenger had booked a second-class seat from Huzhou to Hangzhou East in car 3, then a first-class seat from Hangzhou East to Ningbo in car 9 on Sunday. When she tried to move to car 9 after the train left Hangzhou East, she found the way blocked at the junction between cars 8 and 9.


事后,当事人表示怪自己没提前了解规则,也没有申请补偿,希望借自己的经历提醒大家买票时多留意。
记者查询“中国铁路”了解到, 8+8重联列车,其实就是将两列8节短编动车组车头对车头拼接联挂而成,组成16节车厢的长编组列车投入运营 。重联列车配备双乘务团队,两组列车各配备与常规列车一致的列车长、乘务员、随车机械师、乘警等人员。
The train was an "8+8 coupled" formation — two eight-car units joined nose-to-nose. Such trains carry two separate crews, one for each unit. Normally, passengers can switch between units by getting off at a stop and walking along the platform, but this service offered no such opportunity.

11月4日下午,12306人工客服表示,现在部分高铁采用8+8重联,两组车厢内部确实不互通。要从1-8号车厢去9-16号车厢,必须等列车到站后下车,从站台绕行。 如果因为车厢不互通,列车中途又不停站,导致旅客买了高等级座位却没法坐,平台不退差价,也没有补偿。
普通乘客可以在购买车票前,登录12306app,首页下拉点击“时刻表”,输入自己想要乘坐的列车班次查询,即可看到车体的照片, “一般有2个车头的话重联列车概率较大,具体还是以当天实际情况或是现场情况为准。”
12306 customer service confirmed on Wednesday that passengers who cannot access a higher-class seat due to this configuration are not entitled to a fare difference refund or compensation.
Passengers can check whether their train is likely to be a coupled formation by looking up the service on the 12306 app's timetable feature, which displays a photo of the train. Customer service advised travelers who need to change seats mid-journey to confirm with staff before boarding whether the cars are connected.


客服提醒,若遇到车内换座需求,上车前务必找工作人员确认,“是不是重联列车,能不能走过去”,一旦列车开动且中途不停,就无法补救,损失只能自己承担,“开车前可退票。”
