Online Cinema Booking System Abstract

Objective:
This project is aimed at developing an online ticket reservation system

for a Cinema Hall. The Ticket Reservation System is an Internet based applicati
on that can be accessed throughout the Net and can be accessed by anyone who has
a net connection. This application will automate the reservation of tickets.
This online ticket reservation system provides a website for a cinema hal
l where any user of internet can access it. This
Existing system: The existing system has two ways of booking tickets for a movie
:
One is to book tickets at the ticket counter of respective cinema hall and the o
ther one is through phone called as Tele booking . Former is one of the hectic proc
esses where one should stand in long queues for hours. Tele booking was introdu
ced keeping in view the user s comfort while booking tickets.
Proposed system:
The proposed system is a web based application where one can buy tickets with ju
st one click go. An internet user can buy tickets at any time of day or night. H
e will be guided with all the necessary steps to book tickets and collect ticket
s at the ticket counter in the website.
Also in the proposed system, customers can cancel seats at a suitable
time (2 days before the show to 1hour before the show). If the customer wishes t
o cancel his tickets he will be given a confirmation details regarding his cance
llations. As the customer buys tickets online through his credit card, on cancel
lation of tickets the refunded amount (30% of the amount will be charged for ser
vice charges) will be added back to his credit card account. To enhance the ref
und function, all the customers have to register and become a member before buyi
ng tickets so that he faces no problem while accessing the website.

all he is interested to reserve tickets for any of the movies currently running
in the theatre then he has to be a registered member to that website. Required A

stem.
The member is one who is a valid user of the system. The
authentication is provided to him while he logging into the system, i.e. he is
checked for entering the valid UserId and Password.
