What is the cheapest way to get to ZhangJiaJie from Beijing for a group of 15+ people in October?

Hi Kristy,

Warmest greeting from Daniel, your personal travel advisor at Top China Travel

Thank you very much for your kindness of visiting our website and showing your interests on us. With the motto of being your faithful friend in China and creating ever-lasting memories of your China trip, we have been devoting ourselves in providing the good services with reasonable prices which could be adjusted according to your tour budget after we receive further requests from you.

Your E-mail has been well received by us and noted that you would like to travel to Zhangjiajie via Beijing. One way from Beijing to Zhangjiajie is about 1600 km and we’ve got direct train and flight. The cheapest way, as far as I concerned, is to take train, and I am very pleased to give all the information as below for your reference:

One direct train from Beijing to Zhangjiajie, daily departure
Train Number: K967 (departure time at 0845 a.m.; ETA arrival time at 0900 a.m. the next day)
Train duration: 24 hours
Hard seat: at US$45 per person, incl. ticket handling fees (cheapest way!)
Hard sleeper: at US$80 per person, incl. ticket handling fees
Soft sleeper, at US$115 per person, incl. ticket handling fees
The difference from hard sleeper to soft sleeper:
Hard sleeper, open door, 6 berths in one cabin
Soft sleeper, private cabin, 4 berths in one cabin

You can also consider the direct flight which is much more convenient, although it is expensive…FYI
Beijing to Zhangjiajie, via CZ6600 (0640/0910), 2.5 hours
Economic class: rack rate at US$248/p.p, incl. tax and fuel surcharge
Economic class, approx. discounts (expect for 30% off, on October), at US$185/p.p, incl. tax and fuel surcharge

Hope the above is clear and will meet your expectation accordingly. Should you need any further information, please just feel free to contact us at any time.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

P.S. We can also arrange tour in Zhangjiajie and could offer you very competitive rate! You might try us if you haven’t booked the tour yet :)

Sincerely yours,

Daniel
