  1. Great idea , finally learning from west ointegrated transportation like Europe and other countries. Also need connection with air, ground transportation for transit customer heading to other states like ira to train bus station and luggage transfer in seamless manner for example
    Usa customer wants to go to jammu by train after claiming from luggage claim it is given back transit check in and you meet your luggage either in train or pick up at final destination for example jammu with theft would be ideal like international travel company like gate one did for us in China trip need to keep up with Chinese lol
