Travel from Kunming to Lejing, China

I want to travel from Kunming to Lejing. China Eastern Airlines list flights at $108 one way, which seems a little high. I read on another site that tickets can be purchased at the airport for only $28 - but the entry was from 2006.

Any information on flights?

Alternatively, train or bus service?

Thanks very much!

Do you mean Kunming to Lijiang?

Several ways to go. You can catch an overnight train to Dali (worth a day) then onward bus to Lijiang - another 4 hours.

Or you can catch direct bus from Kunming to Lijiang - overnight sleeper bus possible or daytime.

Or you can fly. Look on sites such as www.travelzen.com or www.ctrip.com

This a popular route with a number of flights with different airlines. They are mostly discounted if you wait. Are you just looking at the China Eastern websites? Best to have a look at the travel websites for flights that Drumbrake has posted.

Not sure about turning up %26amp; jumping on a flight for that price but wouldn%26#39;t discount it - maybe not for that price however:)

I presume you mean Lijiang. There%26#39;re flights and also buses (seater or overnight sleeper). If you want to go by train, Lijiang has no train station so you%26#39;ll end up taking a train to Dali (could be overnight) and then a bus to Lijiang.

The best overnight sleeper buses from Kunming to Lijiang only cost 100+ RMB. That%26#39;s definitely worthwhile.
