Questions & Answers on Tianjin - Taiyuan Train

Asked by Barlow from AUSTRALIA | Dec. 17, 2019 17:22

Hello, we are looking for a trip from Tianjin to Taiyuan

We have 2 adult passengers and two children, one of the child is under 120cm and no need for ticket. However, we can buy one more tickets if it is necessary to hold the soft sleeper cabin. Can you confirm if you will book a cabin for our own? If not, it does not make sense to pay extra for one more ticket. Looking for your reply.
