Enhancing meal quality
On-board catering
In 2019, we continued to successfully grow our on-board catering service. Meals may be pre-ordered when purchasing a ticket at a ticket office or online, or ordered directly from a carriage attendant during the journey.
Catering for organised groups of children
To improve customer service for organised groups of children and simplify the meal ordering process for them, in July 2019, we provided children group leaders with an option to order Sanitary Rules-compliant catering services for their groups when purchasing their tickets.
Food delivery to a carriage door
In mid-December 2019, the Company launched a new service whereby passengers can order door-to-door food and add-on items delivery from restaurants located in cities where FPC’s trains have stops on their journeys.
Towards the end of December, passengers were already using the Russian Railways official website to order door-to-door food deliveries from Papa John’s, the first restaurant to join the service, to trains departing from four railway stations in Moscow (Leningradsky, Kursky, Yaroslavsky and Kazansky).
