What is the difference between a first class seat and business class seat please besides the price.

Answered by Nanette from USA | Sep. 23, 2019 19:44

business class seats are much better than first class. It has only 3 seats in each row with plenty of room. Passengers can even lie down on it. First class seats is also comfortable but passengers can only sit on it. You can find photos online.

If we request to deliver our paper tickets to a hotel in Beijing, can we ask a particular date?

We will only stay in our hotel for one night, can tickets reach us in time?

Thank you for your inquiry.

We will always arrange delivery service in advance before your hotel checkin date. Your tickets would reach your hotel around 2 days before your checkin and you can collect them from hotel reception once you get there. We will contact hotel in advance about this issue. You do not need to worry about it. Once the tickets were send out, we will inform you by email.

Asked by Abrahams from UAE | Apr. 01, 2019 04:05

Is there any recommended hotel near Dandong Station?

I plan to make a short day visit in Dandong and take train K27 the next day morning to Pyongyang. I prefer a hotel offering luggage storage service as I prefer to leave some of my luggage in Dondang while visiting Pyongyang. Thank you.

Answered by Wesley from CANADA | Apr. 01, 2019 18:45

You may consider hotel like Hilton Garden Inn, Yalu River Hotel or Holiday Sunshine Business Hotel. They are all in walking distance from the railway station. Usually all hotels can offer luggage storage service, but if you will left them there for many days, there could be a fee charged. Not sure, how many it costs. If a few hours, it is for free.

How many stations in Dandong?

The station I arrive at is also the one where I can take a train to Pyongyang?

There are two stations in fact, but the West station seems hardly used. All the rides from Beijing stop at Dandong station which is also the one you can use for the international trip to Pyongyang
