1. You can search for China domestic flights at flychina.com. They will also book flights, but I don’t know how competitive they are.

   You can see the results for Hongqiao to Fuzhou at this link. They showed nothing for Pudong to Fuzhou.

2. Sorry, that link didn’t return Hongqiao-Pudong. You’ll have to enter your query yourself at flychina.com’s main page here:

3. Gary, thanks for the information. Their demostic price is not competitive. They offer 390 USD for single trip flight from Shanghai to Beijing. But do you know how much it costs to book here? It is only around 1000 RMB for full priced ticket. That is only about 110 USD. it can be cheaper when there is discount.

4. I use the link below to check China demostic fight schedule, but it doesn’t have online book function.

   Normally when I make a transit in ShangHai, I buy air tickets in the airport. Is there any other way to get better deal for air tickets?

   ===============

   Hi, Jian Shuo,

   When I searched for Shanghai airport, I found your web

   site. It is a very nice site. It has a lot useful

   information, too. I need to stay in shanghai for a

   night to make a fight transit. I found the inn you

   mention is a good option. I also found from Pu dong

   airport web site, there is “Ji shi Hotel” inside the

   Pu Dong Airport. Do you know any words about that

   hotel? Could you let me know?

   BTW, I tried to send email to you. But it failed.

5. Hi Jian-Shuo,

   When you say “You can get very good hotel at about 80RMB and low-end price is about 15USD” I assume you meant 80 USD right?

   Johnny

6. Oh. My Appologize. It is 80 USD or 600 RMB. I have changed it in my article. Thanks.

7. Jian-Shuo,

   This is just pure conincident that I am also looking for domestic flights from Shanghai to Fuzhou. My flight will arrive in Shanghai on 11/27 at 7:10pm, and I am wondering

   1) is it possible for me to catch a flight from Hongquiao at 9:00pm on the same evening? How much time does it take to travel between the two airports?

   2) Is it possible to book domestic tickets through you? My American travel agent has trouble with the domestic booking.

   3) If I need to stay overnight in Shanghai, which hotel would you recommend given my budget is limited?

   Thank you so much, and I really appreciate your help.

    TKU!

11. I got a deal from http://www.wacts.com fly from Shanghai to Kunming and return only cost USD 200 per person roundtrip. Public fare will be around USD 420 per person roundtrip.

12. that url missing in my last note, here is it. They offer discount fares, even e-tickets, which are more cheaper than paper tickets

13. Myself and 3 other family members will be going to China in June. I was wondering what to expect for flights from Beijing to Chengdu; Beijing to Changchun, and Chengdu to Changchun. Do I need to wait until I arrive in China to purchase tickets? Is it better to take a sleeper train to these cities? Any hotel suggestions?

    Thank you! Thank you!

14. Dear Mr Wang,

    Good day to you.

    I’m from Singapore going to Shanghai & Beijing, would need your kind info on the following :

    01 June 2004- morning after departing with my tour at Shanghai, I’ll go to Beijing on my own to visit a friend. A travel agency quoted me CA950 Pudong/Beijing at 1pm flight for RMB900. Not sure if I book from the hotel counter on my first day 25 May, will it be cheaper?

    06 June 2004- My international flight from Pudong/Singapore at 10am. The earliest flight from Beijing/Pudong is 0740-0935, I don’t think I can make it. Kindly advise what is the easier/safest way to reach Pudong?

    I’ve thought of taking evening flight at US$126 on the

    05 June, which I’ve to hang overnight at Pudong airport.Any idea of the transit bed/luggage deposit service?

    Or, 05 June, I can take a train Beijng/Shanghai 1928-0726 at US$60. How do I get from Shanghai railway station to Pudong? What is the train fare if I buy at Beijing?

    Your kind assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Many thks….

23. Jian Shou,

    I also wondered what PNR meant on the United Airline ticket and surfing I found your site and explantion. Thanks!

    I was in your city on December 28 and I was looking to buy a deeply discount ticket to Guangzhou but couldn’t find any agencies that do so. I finally bought a soft sleeper to GZ at ~600 RMB as it was next to the YMCA Jian Jiang where I was staying.

    Later there were people passing discount ticket agent cards with up to 60% discounts near Xiang Yang market but too late for me. However, when I was in GZ I got at ticket for ~400 RMB to SaYa, Hainan, a whopping 60-70% off the published price. The discount varied according to the time of flight and airline.In Sanya I got the same whopping discount from Haikou to Shenzhen ~350 RMB directly from an airline agent office.

    How and where I can do it in Shanghai? I may be coming again in the summer headed for Tibet via Beiging or Shanghai. This info would be helpful to others. I can speak some Putonghua but better in Cantonese.

    Thanks for your wonderful site.

40. Hi

    I just wanted to let you know how helpful your website is regarding travel information for Shanghai and Beijing.

    My wife and I will be travelling to Shanghai and Beijing in September 2006. We have roundtrip tickets from Newark, NJ to Shanghai. We plan to head directly to Beijing for 4 or 5 days and then head to the Sunisland resort in western Shanghai for the next week. I know the trip is far off in the future but your site has provided some good info for us to think about.

    Hopefully, as the date comes closer, if I have any question that can’t be found on your site, you will be kind enough to give me some assistance.

    Thanks

48. Hello guys. I have been searching the internet for quite a while now… I am looking for a domestic flight from Xiamen to Wuhan in China (for a cheaper price). We will be in Xiamen this Sunday. This is going to be my husband and I’s first time in China :-) Kindly e-mail me at lorraine.lysander@yahoo.com… Please :-)

    Hope you could help me.

49. I have not travelled in China since I arrived in October to work as a teacher until this Spring Festival month. I am on a tight budget but want to travel. I wanted to do most of the travel by train but the trains are difficult to book I asked someone to inquire for me in chinese. The response was the trains between Kunming and Wuhan only have 20 tickets to sell. i find that odd in a country of billions. so i am hoping the flight websites in this blog will prove to be economically helpful. I am visiting Kunming, Lijiang and Dali.

    Thanks for the information. If anyone knows the “ins and outs” on booking and purchasing train tickets let me know.

52. Hi,

    I will be travelling during the week of the labour holiday (May 1 2007). I will be in Shanghai for a week prior on business and can purchase flight tickets then for my trips below (arrive april 22). Will this be too late given the holidays? It is too expensive to book from North America. If one week prior is too late to book do you have any suggestions of how to book from here cheaply?

    Shanghai-Beijing: 4/27/07

    Beijing-Guilin 5/2/2007
