Thank you for your inquiry.

There is luggage rack above the seat for your luggage. If your luggage cannot fit the rack, there will be racks between carriages for large sized luggage. You do not need to pay for extra piece of luggage. Although the policy allow 20kg luggage only, stations hardly check about it. You can take all your luggage with you as long as it is not extremely large in size. Hope this information can help you.

Hi, is there any high speed overnight train from Xi'an to Shenzhen?

There is no such trip from Xi'an, only day time high speed rides or slow overnight rides. But if you do prefer this type of ride, you can consider a transfer option: Xi'an-Zhengzhou-Shenzhen. There are many high speed rides a day to Zhengzhou and every Friday to next Monday, one overnight high speed sleeper ride from Zhengzhou to Shenzhen

The ticket price for a second class seat is around USD135. The ticket price for a first class seat should be USD212. One way ticket. There is no early bird discount for tickets in China, so no matter at what time, the price is the same.

Is it recommended to take a flight or train from Xi'an to Shenzhen?

A direct flight would take 3 hours only, did much faster than rail service. But normally, the flight ticket price is much higher than rail service. So for budget travelers, rail service would be better option. However, there is one exception. During off season, there can be very good discount offered for flights. So the price may even lower than second class seat on bullet rides. In this way, flight is surely a better option. You can check the price in details by your date and make the decision.

In fact the normal night rides takes a long time, 24 to 35 hours for the trip. For hard sleeper cabin, there are 6 beds set up in each cabin. For soft sleeper cabin, there are 4 beds. And there is cabin door for soft sleeper cabin.
