Futian Railway Station is a little bit closer to your hotel, not South Station. 20min by taxi, 9km. There are over 40 rides a day to Xiamen from this station. So if you are not particular with the time and seat class, it should be no problem to get a ticket at station on the day of travel.

Asked by Lizeth from HUNGARY | Dec. 19, 2018 01:11

Why the travel time is different?

I see some of them take 1.5 hours, some take 2.5 hours. How do I know if the one I choose is bullet train or not.

In fact they are all bullet rides, but still a little different in speed. Also, the stopovers influence the duration too. Some rides only stop at a few stopovers but some other rides may stop at small stopovers as well. Therefore, they take longer time. You can just choose them based on your departure time and duration.
