00ReplyYes, sure. Passengers can walk from carriage 1 to 8, and 9 to 16. So it is not a problem. If you are lucky enough, you may find other passengers who are kind enough to change seats with you.

Answered by Brennan from FINLAND | Apr. 14, 2019 17:2900Reply
00ReplyIt depends on your travel date. If there is a discount flight ticket, I will use flight. I checked that sometimes the flight ticket is lower than CNY500 and it is faster! Full price flight ticket is over CNY1400, if so, definitely high speed ride.

00ReplyThe high speed rides usually hardly delays, so 30min between two trips would be fine if you collect the paper tickets for both trips in advance. If you are worried about the delay or finding direction in stations etc., you may prepare longer time.
