About:Top 8 China Train Travel Tips You Should Know

Hello! We are going to go by train (T109) from Beijing to Shanghai 13.07.2010. Our group is - five adults, one boy 15 years old, two girls 11 years and six girls 9-10 years old (total 14 persons). All children are the participant of the World Choir Games 2010 (Shaoxing, 15-20.07.2010) So we'd like to know if there is a spesial price for the children or not (so what is the total cost for us). And what it the earliest time for booking on your site in this case.
Sincerely yours, Elena Likhacheva

The total cost depends on the seat class you chosen. In China, children between 1.1 meters and 1.5 meters tall can enjoy a half price ticket when buying hard seat or soft seat. Children taller than 1.5 meters will need a full price ticket. There is no charge for children under 1.1 meters tall. If you buy sleeper, there are no half price tickets for children. The cost of a child’ sleeper is about 20% to 25% off of an adult’s sleeper.

Ok. I'll buy sleeper. So 20% or 25% discount for children up to 12 years old or up to some other age? And what about the second question (the earliest time for booking on your site)

Thank you!

In China, the train ticket price for children has no relation with the children age but only the height. For details, you can inquire online directly. And the train tickets are usually hard to purchase, so it is better for you to arrange it as early as possible, such as about one month before your departure.
