About:Chengdu Shuangliu Airport

Train To Emeishan

I am scheduled to land in CTU at 9:35am on June 25 and am trying to get to Emeishan as early as possible. The following questions should hopefully help me with this:

(1) The train schedule listed here is very different from the one listed at the airport website.

Here, mid-day train times from Shuangliu to Emeishan are listed as 10:54 and 15:15. However, the airport website lists departure times as 10:20 and 11:57. Which is correct?

(2) Also, I am landing at Terminal 1 on Sichuan Airlines. How long will it take to transfer to T2 to the train station?

(3) What is the difference between "Emeishan" and "Emei" train stations?

(4) If all else fails, how much/how long is a cab ride from the airport to Emeishan?

Thank you!

1) There are four departures on June 25 currently available, 09:13, 10:54, 16:00 and 19:33 according to the official website of China railway corporation. There may be more put into available as the date is coming.
You can search the real time schedule on this website on your own.
2) It takes about 15 minutes from T1 to the railway station on foot. So no worry, it's enough for you to catch the one departing at 10:54.
3) Emeishan is built for the high speed trains and more closer to the Mt. Emei; while Emei station was built in 1965 for the convenience of local people.
4) It takes about 4 hours. But I'm afraid few drivers would like to drive that far. If all else really fails, you can go to Xinnanmen Bus Station to take a long-distance bus to Mt. Emei (about 3 hours). But it really is a detour. Hope the train choice works out smoothly.
