All of them are operated between Chengdu Railway Station and Tianjin Railway Station.

 More than 15 direct flights are operated between the two cities daily. A single trip takes about 2.5 hours. Full price for an economy class seat is over CNY 1,600. When a discount is offered by the airlines, an economy class seat may be low to CNY 400. In such a case, flight may be a quite good service in all aspects.

If passengers want to experience a different journey by rail, then a bullet train trip is a good choice. High Speed trains will travel from the southwest China to the North China via many famous cities such as Xi'an, Luoyang, and Zhengzhou, to see different scenery along the way. Besides, high speed trains are more punctual than flights.
