A couple of questions..
1. Where are you getting those GET names from? Can't see any reference to them in your code..
2. Why are you putting GET data directly into the database.. That's just asking for trouble. Any and all input from a user should be seen cleaned before database entry.
3. What is so important about line 147/148, I see no problems there.

see this line
You are using four fields but five parameters and some commas are missing.

$query="INSERT INTO trip (from,to,coach_type,fare) values ('".$a."','".$b."','".$c."'".$d."'".$e."')";

try this now

it should be either c or d (AC or non AC. not both)


$query="INSERT INTO trip (from,to,coach_type,fare) values ('$a','$b','$c','$e')";

Apart from the fact that your HTML is appalling.. as I said earlier, where are you getting the (in this case) POST from?

You appear to be using the values that the fields have, this is incorrect.
You should be using:

$a = $_POST['to'];
    $b = $_POST['from'];
    $c = $_POST['couch'];
    $e = $_POST['550'];

This is not recommended though, the user can modify the data sent to the server through a form, you should look into SQL injection and how to prevent it.
