TRAVEL TIP
If you fly from Hong Kong, fly
from Shenzhen
It is still considered as "international
flight" for any flight from Hong Kong to other cities in China.
Therefore, the fare is much higher than a pure domestic flight from
Shenzhen City to other places in China. We strongly advise you to take
the advantage of domestic flight from Shenzhen instead of Hong Kong.
Shenzhen is just across the "border" from
Hong Kong. At Hong Kong Airport and several locations in the city, you
can take a shuttle or a train to Shenzhen from Hong Kong for less than
$10.
It is our recommendation that you should
fly out of Shenzhen to Shanghai, Beijing or other cities. There are also
a lot of more flights at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport.
We do not issue tickets for flights
departing from Hong Kong as we don't have a ticket delivery in Hong
Kong. However, we can book your ticket for the flights arriving in Hong
Kong.
