Travel Tips

1. Pay attention to the 4-hour G trains. Usually, it is quicker to take a G train than to take a D train on a journey. But on the Nanjing–Ningbo route, some G trains are not quicker than D trains as they detour on the tracks, such as train G1866 and G7571.

The journey duration is longer and the ticket price is more expensive so don't choose the 4-hour G trains when you book your ticket(s).

2. Business-class seats are only available on G trains. If you would like to have a business-class seat, you can book one when traveling on a G train.
