I heard that during the Chinese Spring Festival the train tickets are terribly hard to get, so can I buy the ticket for Feb now?

Dear Dan,

Thanks for contacting Top China Travel! 

From 6th December 2014, passengers can buy train tickets up to 60 days in advance (previously only 20 days in advance) in order to relieve the pressure of buying tickets during Spring Festival. So you can buy train ticket now from internet or telephone. But one thing to be notice is that, pre-sale period for buying tickets from the counters at the train stations are only 58 days not 60 days prior to the departure date.

Any further request or question, please feel free to contact with us.
