Times are planning references. China Railway runs several timetable revisions a year and adds or suspends trains at short notice — check live seats and today’s schedule for your date before you rely on any specific departure.

Before you rely on this

The times above come from the July 2026 timetable snapshot. China Railway revises its schedule several times a year, adds trains for holidays, and suspends services at short notice. Treat every departure time as a planning reference, not a booking commitment.

The live search queries China Railway (12306) directly for your travel date — that is the only source that reflects today's actual schedule and seat availability.

Our data covers high-speed (G/D/C) and intercity services. Slow conventional trains (Z/T/K) are only partly included, so a route marked "no direct train" may still have a direct slow train. Always confirm in the live search.

Why people take the train instead of flying

  • City centre to city centre. Chinese high-speed stations sit in the urban core or on a metro line — no 45-minute airport transfer at either end.
  • No check-in cut-off. You can board a few minutes before departure. Arriving 20 minutes early is comfortable.
  • Luggage is free and unlimited. No weight limit, no bag drop queue.
  • 2h 57m door to door compares well once you add airport security, boarding and transfers.
  • Foreign passports are accepted. Your passport is your ticket — no Chinese ID or phone number needed.

What it costs

Fares are set by China Railway in yuan and converted to dollars at the rate shown on this site. The price you see in the search results is the fare plus our service fee, in one number — nothing is added at checkout.

Other classes, and slower trains on the same route, are priced differently by the railway. The exact figure for the train you pick is shown before you pay.
