To Mr WanSo, you are changing your travel plan. There is no direcct bus route from Xichand to Dali. Xichang bus Station only have one bus a day at 8:30am to Lugu Lake. It needs 7-8 hours. Lugu Lake is 5-6 hours from Lijiang and Lijiang is 3-4 hours to Dali. You make me puzzled about your route, and that is a route for your reference. Yes, Shangri-La has flights to Kunming. You can see the web of China Eastern Airlines. Flight at Diqing departing at 8:40, 8:50, 8:55, 9:55 and 21:20. Please confirm that when you book the ticket. :-)

there is no direct transportion from Xichang to Dali.what Norman told is actually the only option you  have if you wanna start from Xichang.make LuKu lake as your first destination then Lijiang,Shangarila and Dali.there are coaches, flights and trains from Dali to Kunming and it will take you 4 hrs if you take bus.btw,if you arrive at Xichang on Aug 14 you can join the celebration of Huobajie(Torch Festival)of Yi people there.enjoy yourself.
