What are the advantages and disadvantages? Why is Spring Festival travel rush Rush's "Curve" Home Raiders so popular?

With the sale of train tickets on New Year's Eve, the snapping up of return tickets has started one after another, and the war of grabbing tickets in Spring Festival travel rush has entered a white-hot stage. "From the booking data, the number of people taking the train has increased significantly this year." The relevant person in charge of Ctrip said that this aspect is directly related to the improvement of railway capacity, but on the other hand, it also indirectly caused the ticket sources of some popular trains to be very tight.

Although most people want to choose the train to go home, the current situation of "one ticket is hard to find" makes many people can only "look at the ticket and sigh". At the same time, it also directly led to the pursuit of various "curve" home ways by travel websites. The so-called "curve" way to go home is mainly through "air-rail combined transport" and "public-rail combined transport". Take the direction from Wuhan to Harbin in February 13 as an example. If you can't buy a direct train ticket, passengers can choose to fly from Wuhan to Beijing first, then return to Harbin by train from Beijing, and finally take the "air-rail combined transport" to their destination.

It is reported that the "curve" ticket purchase not only has a higher success rate, but also has advantages over air tickets. Take the direction from February 1 1 Yangzhou to Nanning as an example. The lowest price for a direct flight ticket is 1370 yuan, while the lowest price for a train ticket from Yangzhou to Nanjing and then to Nanning is only 1 187.5 yuan, which is nearly cheaper than a direct flight ticket in 200 yuan. February 13, Wuhan to Harbin, the average price of direct air tickets on the same day 1800 yuan, but if you fly from Wuhan to Beijing and then return to Harbin by train from Beijing, you only need 576 yuan.

Spring Festival travel rush robbed home without a ticket. What new ideas and skills can help to buy tickets?

New ideas for booking tickets (no matter through what channels)

1. Focus on adding trains ("temporary passengers"). Overtime trains don't mean local trains. Every year in Spring Festival travel rush, the railway department will add high-speed trains, bullet trains, through trains, express trains, express trains, sleeper groups and green leather passengers. These trains will be added from time to time, usually for the first time, or a few days after the ticket release date. Please pay attention to and refresh 12306 frequently. In addition, I will try my best to update the log and publish visitor information.

2. use transit ("curve home").

Taking Beijing as an example, Tianjin, Shijiazhuang, Shenyang North, Zhengzhou, Taiyuan, Zhangjiakou South and Hengshui are the main transit stations. If you can't buy a ticket from Beijing to your destination, you might as well try to transfer at these stations. Taking Shanghai as an example, Nanjing, Xuzhou and Hangzhou are all important transit points. These stations usually have multiple sleepers and seats.

. The method of "curve going home" can combine "overrun method" and "envelope method"

Take a detour home ("detour"). If all kinds of tickets for Hangzhou-Wuchang have been sold out, then consider buying Hangzhou-Zhuzhou, and then make a detour from Zhuzhou to Wuchang.

4. Purchase tickets by stages for the same train ("receiving tickets"). For example, Hohhot-Yinchuan 270 1 has no seats, but Hohhot-Wuyuan and Wuyuan-Yinchuan have seats. You can buy hard seat tickets for these two sections separately, and you just need to change seats in the same car. But pay attention to the driving date behind. It was after 0 o'clock the next day.

Buy a short-distance bus ticket ("play short", and then make up the ticket after getting on the bus. For example, T260, Wuhan-Chongqing has even sold out of seatless tickets. What should I do? Consider buying a seatless ticket on the same train from Wuhan to Yunmeng (the first stop), and then make up the ticket to Chongqing. It should be noted that there may be no seats in the latter section.

6. Buy from the former station and get on the bus at that station ("envelope method"). This method can be used by passing vehicles passing through the station. Midway stations are often not as expensive as departure stations. If you want to buy a ticket from Shijiazhuang to Kunming, you might as well buy the T6 1 train from Beijing to Kunming and get on at Shijiazhuang.

Tips: After purchasing tickets on 12306.cn website, passengers who take the bus at the midway station can take the bus at the departure station or the midway station, but when taking the bus at the midway station, they must exchange ordinary paper tickets before driving. For details, please refer to the relevant instructions in 12306.

7. Buy a farther station and get off early ("crossing the limit"). For example, K4 1 1 Beijing-Weifang has no tickets, but Beijing-Laiyang has tickets, so you can get off at Laiyang Weifang. If you can't get a ticket from Beijing to Xi 'an at Spring Festival travel rush Peak, try the L 17 train from Beijing West to Chengdu, buy a ticket at Guangyuan Station and get off at Xi 'an.

8. Take the time to release the tickets again (Missing).

Generally speaking, some tickets will be released at noon 1 2-13 before driving, at night 18-19, and three days before driving 19 -20. During Spring Festival travel rush, tickets may be released again at 12, 13 and 18 every day.

Every morning at 7: 00 a.m. and at noon 12, the remaining tickets for day 19 (minus 18) and day 18 (minus 17) will be sold. You can brush these "fish that slip through the net" by phone or online. This seat was placed at the beginning of the pre-sale the day before, but I failed to get the ticket in time. Generally, at this time, it will be put into the system again for everyone to buy.

9. Pay attention to the train at the local station nearby. For example, passengers in Luoyang can consider the train departing from Guanlin Station, and passengers in Yuncheng can consider the train departing from Sanmenxia.

10. Buy tickets with seats first ("guaranteed"). During Spring Festival travel rush, the popular line sleeper was like a legend; It is recommended to buy a seat first, so that at least you can go home.

1 1. Multiple choices ("Fill in volunteers"). I suggest you do your homework, refer to the above skills and make more plans to go home.

12. Come to the window frequently and refer to the train conductor's suggestions. It doesn't matter if you didn't buy the ticket for the first time. There will be new tickets on sale later. In addition, sometimes following the advice of the commander may bring unexpected gains:

13. Buy a return ticket before going home. You can buy a return ticket for the pre-sale period locally before going home.

Tips: Today, Spring Festival travel rush only sells the remaining tickets by telephone and online, and the popular trains are likely to come back in vain. We still encourage you to book tickets by telephone and Internet as much as possible. If you really need to go to the window, please be sure to wear thick clothes and prepare hot water and food when waiting in line.

Tips for example: Can I buy a station ticket for the high-speed rail? !

When all kinds of soft and hard sleeper seats on popular routes are sold out, you can check whether there are special seats, first-class seats and business seats on the high-speed rail. These seats are generally more expensive (more expensive than air tickets), and there are usually seats left.

Make use of the method of "shortening" in Article 5 of the above new ideas to buy special, first-class or business tickets from the place of origin to the nearest station. The ticket station stopped, you stood up and said to the conductor, I'm sorry, please give me a replacement ticket. Then, you can take a small bench prepared in advance, find a place where there are few people and enjoy the second half of flying home with air conditioning on.

For example, there is no ticket for the line from Guangzhou to Changsha. You can buy a special seat from Guangzhou to Qingyuan first and get on the bus. When I arrived in Qingyuan, I got up and took my luggage to make up a station ticket. The conductor won't kick you out of the car.

During the National Day this year, nine friends wanted to go to Shanghai from Beijing, but the tickets for all the routes were very tight. It was at my suggestion that I first bought a business seat from Beijing to Langfang, and then bought a station ticket from Langfang to Shanghai. It only costs tens of dollars more, and it is easy to go home by high-speed train or bullet train.

As a reminder, the price of the high-speed rail station ticket is the same as that of the second-class seat. You can make a budget in advance and prepare the change.

Finally, I wish you all a smooth ticket purchase and a safe journey; Happy New Year to China and good luck to year of the snake!

What is the "curve" of Spring Festival travel rush's rush home?

The frequent rush to grab tickets in Spring Festival travel rush has given birth to various "curve" home strategies. 2 1, the reporter learned from major travel booking websites that "air-rail combined transport" and "public-rail combined transport" are becoming new choices for "Spring Festival travel rush grabbing people".

With the sale of train tickets on New Year's Eve, the snapping up of return tickets has started one after another, and the war of grabbing tickets in Spring Festival travel rush has entered a white-hot stage. "From the booking data, the number of people taking the train has increased significantly this year." The relevant person in charge of Ctrip said that this aspect is directly related to the improvement of railway capacity, but on the other hand, it also indirectly caused the ticket sources of some popular trains to be very tight.

"Trains are still the first choice for long-distance travel during Spring Festival travel rush." The person in charge of Tongcheng Tourism said that in the past year, Baolan High-speed Railway and Xicheng High-speed Railway have been connected one after another, enabling the railway to reach more destinations. In addition, the long-distance car selection time will be longer, and the air tickets will be more expensive, prompting more people to choose the train travel mode.

Although most people want to choose the train to go home, the current situation of "one ticket is hard to find" makes many people can only "look at the ticket and sigh". At the same time, it also directly led to the pursuit of various "curve" home ways by travel websites. The reporter learned that the so-called "curve" way to go home is mainly through "air-rail combined transport" and "public-rail combined transport". Take the direction from Wuhan to Harbin in February 13 as an example. If you can't buy a direct train ticket, passengers can choose to fly from Wuhan to Beijing first, then return to Harbin by train from Beijing, and finally take the "air-rail combined transport" to their destination.

"Still give priority to with long-distance flight. Short-and medium-distance trains can reach more destination cities than airplanes, and buses usually appear as the role of completing the' last mile'. " Ctrip travel experts said that this "curve" way of going home by choosing a large transfer station, buying tickets and transferring in stages, and combining train and car transportation is a more reliable choice for most people who are eager to return home and can't buy tickets.

It is reported that the "curve" ticket purchase not only has a higher success rate, but also has advantages over air tickets. Take the direction from February 1 1 Yangzhou to Nanning as an example. The lowest price for a direct flight ticket is 1370 yuan, while the lowest price for a train ticket from Yangzhou to Nanjing and then to Nanning is only 1 187.5 yuan, which is nearly cheaper than a direct flight ticket in 200 yuan. February 13, Wuhan to Harbin, the average price of direct air tickets on the same day 1800 yuan, but if you fly from Wuhan to Beijing and then return to Harbin by train from Beijing, you only need 576 yuan.

How to get home through the bend of air-rail combined transport?

It is reported that a few days ago, the person in charge of the railway department said that in the upsurge of Spring Festival travel rush, long-distance train tickets were generally "hard to get one ticket". In this regard, passengers can re-plan the route, air-rail combined transport, and curve home.

At present, many airlines and railway departments have launched air-rail combined transport, flying to a city near the destination first, and then transferring to the high-speed train to go home, or taking the high-speed train first and then transferring to the plane to fly to the destination. As for the cost, compared with the railway, there will be some air transport routes with relatively sufficient capacity and large discount during the peak period in Spring Festival travel rush. Choosing air-rail combined transport is not only convenient to buy tickets, but also affordable.

Take Beijing to Ningbo as an example. 14 February 29th (the 29th of the twelfth lunar month), not only is it hard to get a train ticket, but it costs more than 1000 yuan to fly. If you fly to Shanghai on February 14, the cheapest ticket is only 400 yuan, and then transfer to the high-speed train of 100 yuan, and the whole journey is only around 600 yuan, which not only reduces the difficulty of ticket purchase, but also makes it more cost-effective.

Spring Festival travel rush Peak is coming, I hope you can plan your trip reasonably!

I'm going to take the curve home. On the first day, I booked a train ticket from Wuhan to Xi 'an, and on the second day, I booked a train ticket from Xi to Lanzhou. How to get tickets?

At present, you can pick up train tickets at any train ticket sales outlets in China, but if you pick them up in different places, you have to charge a handling fee to 5 yuan. You can buy three tickets at a time at any ticket office, or just one or two tickets. But I usually get the tickets I need when I arrive at the station. Because I booked the ticket online with mobile phone software such as "Master Train Ticket", I can refund the ticket directly through the mobile phone client in case of unexpected factors on the road, instead of rushing to the station to refund the ticket because I can't catch the train.

I hope it works for you. Have a nice day!

What is a curved house? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

If you can't buy a direct ticket, you can buy a transfer, or you can transfer by car or train, or you can fly in different ways.
