The 2022 Spring Festival Games will be officially launched on January 17.
From today (January 15) to January 17, the railway Spring Festival train ticket sales have entered a peak period. During this period, train tickets can be purchased from January 29 (the 27th of the twelfth lunar month) to January 31 (New Year's Eve).
A reporter from Beijing Youth Daily logged on the railway 12306 mobile client and found that when purchasing tickets, passengers can check the latest epidemic prevention policies of the departure and destination regions, and passengers are requested to prepare for travel according to the policies.
Popular routes are in short supply
On the morning of the same day, a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily logged on the railway 12306 mobile phone client to search for train tickets for January 29. Compared with the previous days, train tickets for popular routes began to sell well, and many trains on some routes displayed the word "waiting". A small number of trains show tickets.
For example, more than 30 trains can be inquired about the trains from Beijing Railway Station and Beijing Chaoyang Railway Station to Harbin. As of press time, only hard seats are available for K339, K383, and K349, and second-class seats for G937, G939, and G941 are available. There are still remaining tickets, and the remaining trains are displayed as "standby" or the tickets are sold out; 47 trains can be queried from Beijing West to Wuhan at present, and most of the high-speed train tickets in the morning hours have been displayed as "standby".
Before purchasing tickets, you can check the latest epidemic prevention policies of the origin and destination
At present, the epidemic situation abroad is high, and local cases are reported in Tianjin, Henan, Guangdong, Shenzhen and other places in China. The prevention and control of the epidemic cannot be relaxed for a moment.
When returning home for the Chinese New Year, what are the requirements for the epidemic prevention policies at the origin and destination?
When a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily logged on the 12306 mobile phone client to purchase tickets, they found that at present, 12306 can check the latest new epidemic prevention policies in the area of departure and destination when purchasing tickets.
For example, when a reporter inquires about the train from Beijing to Harbin, you can see the "epidemic prevention reminder" of the two places at the top of the ticket purchase page.
Beijing's latest epidemic prevention policy includes minimizing activities outside Beijing and strengthening the management of entry and exit from Beijing.
Harbin's latest epidemic prevention policy includes the need to hold a negative certificate for the test within 48 hours, and pass the green code with the health code.
Before purchasing a ticket for the train from Beijing West to Chengdu, you can check the latest epidemic prevention policy for the destination of Chengdu, which includes "After a local confirmed case occurs in China, when the epidemic area is not designated as a medium and high risk area, the epidemic situation within 14 days. People who come to (return) Sichuan with a history of sojourn in the county (city, district) where they live are required to provide a negative nucleic acid test report within 48 hours, and those who cannot provide a report should complete the nucleic acid test within 24 hours. If the nucleic acid test is negative, it will be included in community management. Health monitoring until 14 days have passed since leaving the place where the epidemic occurred." and so on.
The railway department reminds that the same city has different epidemic prevention policies for entry and exit. Passengers are requested to learn more about the relevant epidemic prevention policies when purchasing tickets.
At present, the latest policies provided on 12306 are compiled from public information, and local epidemic prevention and control policies may be adjusted at any time. It is recommended that passengers confirm the latest epidemic prevention policies of the origin and destination before departure.
