The local transportation in Dali is not convenient. The best way is to take a taxi, the price is no more than CNY20 per car.

No direct train or flight between Lijiang and Qingdao. I suggest you take a flight from Lijiang to Kunming, then Kunming to Qingdao. Train will take much more time.

You can take bus No. 4 or 18 to reach the Old Town from station. Or you can go by carpool too, about CNY40 per person. To the airport, you can take a taxi to Lantian Hotel first and then take the airport shuttle bus to the airport. There is also bus No. 27 can be used but it is not very recommended as it runs on a small road and a little hard to walk to the airport from bus stop. Carpool is also frequently used, most hostels offer this arrangement, CNY80.
