Hello Mr.Frankie,
Thanks for your reply.I just want to know if how far is Chengdu from Hongkong and how far is Chengdu
to Guangzhou?I just want to know the distance so i know which one i should take.
Thank you for giving attention of my letter.

Mr.Frankie replied:

Very difficult to give you accurate distance which is totally different between by land and by air. But, the difference should be around 200kms only. One thing should be note is that from HK to Chengdu, it is the international flight (price is expensive). From Guangzhou to Chengdu, it is the domestic flight.

to take Manila via Hongkong because last August 31-Sept.10.i went to Guangzhou and i took Manila via Hongkong

Manila to Chengdu.I travel a lot there in China,so i dont want trouble anymore.
Hope you undrestand.Once again,thank you.

Mr.Frankie replied:

Hi July, as I know, there is no direct from from Manila to Chengdu currently. So, you have to choose a third airport as transfer station. Currently, Manila has direct flight to Hong Kong and Guangzhou. How about Guangzhou Airport?

I am planning to travel to Chengdu on December but i dont know which plane i am going to take from Manila.What airplane is traveling from Manila via Chengdu?

Sep. 17,2009 05:00
Mr.Frankie replied:

Hi, as I know, there are several flights from Manila to Hong Kong, China everyday. So you could fly to Hong Kong firstly and then trafer to Chengdu by air. When you arrive in Hong Kong Airport, you could also take a ferry to Shenzhen Airport quickly. At Shenzhen Airport, you could take a domestic flight to arrive in Chengdu, too.

How much time it will take to Beijing from Chengdu by Speed train and fare

Sep. 2,2009 04:48
Mr.Sam replied:

There are only three trains departing from Chengdu to Beijing. And, the fastest one takes about 26 hours on the way. The fare is CNY620/soft sleeper and CNY400/hard-sleeper. So, I think you may consider taking a flight. The flights infor and fare could be searced at http://www.travelchinaguide.com/china-flights/
