During the busy National Day Holiday, also the golden travel week for Chinese people, the ticket prices of the hot domestic and international flight routes were pretty expensive and hard to purchase. However, after the holiday, the fares drop sharply. For example, passengers could only buy a full price ticket of the Beijing - Kunming flight, at about CNY3, 000 during the holiday. But now, you can enjoy a huge discount of 70% - 80%, only CNY600-700 is needed. Besides the popular domestic flights, the same thing has happened on international flights. The ticket prices from New York, London and Tokyo to Beijing all fall a lot.

As it's the best time to purchase relatively cheap tickets and October is also the top season to visit most attractions in China, it is a good chance to have a China tour.

On September 25, Beijing Daxing International Airport formally opened. The mega-hub with the world's largest terminal is designed to accommodate 72 million passengers throughput by 2025. The star-shaped airport with a unique design saves passengers a lot of time no matter in check-in or transfer, no more than 600m to reach any boarding gate and transfer time less than 1 hour.

At present, there are 7 domestic and 8 international air companies setting down in the new airport including Air China, China Southern, China Eastern, British Airways, LOT Polish Airlines, and Air Finland. More airlines and flights will be added in the future.

The airport is 46 km (about 30 miles) south of downtown Beijing. The new airport express connects Daxing Airport with downtown Beijing and only 20 minutes are needed between Caoqiao Station and the airport. Passengers can even check-in directly at Caoqiao Station. Besides that, there are 6 shuttle bus lines between the airport and Beijing Railway Station, West Railway Station, South Railway Station, Tongzhou, Fangshan and Xuanwumen. The Beijing - Xiong'an Intercity Railway also opened on September 26, operating between West Station and the airport with 20 minutes for a single way.
