Ticketing is the first part of the Spring Festival, priority protection to enhance the first experience of travelers, but also the first hard battle of the annual Spring Festival railroad sector.
"Did you grab a ticket?" This may be the most common content in the daily conversation before the Spring Festival.
Single window ticketing, telephone, Internet booking window pickup, online ticket self-service pickup, travel ticketing channels are becoming more and more diversified, network ticketing is increasingly becoming the preferred choice. The reporter learned from the General Administration of Railways, in order to make travelers buy tickets more convenient and efficient, the railroad department has taken a number of measures: First, the 12306 website technical expansion, the daily ticketing capacity from 10 million sheets to 15 million sheets.

Driving a car
Driving 10 days round trip "three points and one line"
Lunar year ago, Mr. Li intends to drive home from Beijing. First the newlywed daughter-in-law back to Shandong Dongying, and then back to Tai'an, after the New Year and then return to Beijing, although ten days to complete two of these "three points and one line", rolling more than 1600 kilometers. Why choose to drive? Mr. Li said, a daughter-in-law's home is currently not through the high-speed rail, home is more difficult. Secondly, more and more highways are being built, and travel is more convenient. Third, driving is convenient, large luggage is not restricted, but also to avoid the Spring Festival ticket rush.
Every kilometer of extension is the pursuit and practice of the goal of better service to the masses.Since 2017, China's highway business continues to play a pioneering role in the development of transportation, the scale of the infrastructure continues to expand, the mileage of the new highway more than 5,000 kilometers, the new reconstruction of the national and provincial trunk highways more than 20,000 kilometers, more than 20,000 kilometers of rural roads.
Most people with children, pets, or large luggage choose to drive directly to their homes. The parties concerned used big data technology to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the operation of the road network throughout last year, especially on holidays, and put forward the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway Beijing border to the entrance and exit of Liutao Road, the Shanghai-Shaanxi Expressway Anhui Jinzhai South Road entrance and exit to Xiaoxichong Junction and other highway top ten congested road sections and congestion of the serious 10 toll stations.
The good news is also a series of initiatives of the highway department. In response to the outstanding problems of road traffic congestion in previous years, the relevant departments proposed to strive to manage a number of more serious congestion before the peak of the Spring Festival road sections and nodes, the establishment of a collaborative linkage mechanism, in advance to take precautions, the requirements to simplify the ETC procedures, increase the preferential efforts to increase the penetration rate.
"Fly" home: save time with the family
Travel by plane has become the norm for Mr. Tian, this year, still early to book a plane ticket from Shenzhen to fly back to Qingdao. "Business travel are flying, already accustomed to, Shenzhen to Qingdao nearly 2,000 kilometers, the train ticket is also really some tension." Mr. Tian now hopes airlines will have discount packages for fixed two-city routes throughout the year, as he has to make a round trip from Shenzhen to Qingdao almost every month.
Another consideration for Mr. Tian is that he is usually busy at work and wants to save more time to spend with his family. Mr. Tian's consideration is a microcosm of the many "flyers" in the air. In January, the Civil Aviation Administration (CAA) announced that it expects to transport 65 million passengers in the 2018 Spring Festival, an increase of about 10 percent over last year's Spring Festival, and continue to maintain a high growth trend.
How to "fly" home this year? The Civil Aviation Administration has responded. Liu Feng, director of the Bureau's Transportation Department, said recently that it is estimated that the concentration of workers in the north and south of Guangzhou and the "north and south" tourist destinations will show phases of supply and demand contradictions.
In addition, the Civil Aviation Administration also requires airlines to dynamically adjust their flight schedules according to market demand, optimize their flight structure and aircraft type, and reasonably back up their capacity to prevent long delays due to aircraft failure and other reasons. It is understood that, as of January 16, domestic and foreign airlines have planned to arrange extra charter flights during the Spring Festival nearly 12,500.
The railroad is convenient, "fly" home fast, highway minibus holiday free ...... 2018, how do you go home?
