ReplyWhen is the first metro from Chongqing North Station to Xiaoshizi?
If we will reach there at around 6am, can I still metro train?

Answered by Baker from UNITED KINGDOM | Sep. 08, 2019 17:1800Reply
00ReplyI think the first metro line 10 starts at 6:34am to Hongtudi and then you can change to line 6 to Xiaoshizi. If you will reach North Station at 6am, you need to wait about half an hour.

ReplyBuy 4 tickets to hold a whole soft sleeper
We are a family of 3. I read online that each passenger can only buy one ticket, but we do want to have a private cabin of our own. What if I will book another ticket with another passport? Do you think this is workable?

00ReplyThank you for your inquiry.
With 4 passports, it is OK to buy 4 tickets in one cabin. However, it is recommended to take the 4th passport with you when traveling. You can collect the 4th tickets out which will enlarge the chance of getting private cabin for the whole trip. However, some times, the staff may check the berth situation at some stops, so this option is not 100% guaranteed. Hope for your advanced notice.

ReplyWhy the ticket price on G571 is higher than G309?
Answers (1)
Answered by Beena from USA | Nov. 29, 2018 17:2000Reply
00ReplyThey run on different routes. The distance for G571 is longer and the price mainly depends on distance. So the price is higher on G571. You can also consider the flight. If a good discount is offered for your travel date, it may even cheaper than high speed rail service.
