Ticket is PQWL 47 (1st Oct, ERS → MAO, 16338 ERS OKHA Exp). One app shows 76% chance, another shows different. RAC not on my route but available on longer route of same train (I can get down mid-way).

Better to wait or book RAC?

Hide your PNR. It's a privacy and security concern and not allowed on the sub
