Tips & Warnings
Juneyao Airlines doesn't offer an English-language Web site or booking phone number. English-speaking travelers are advised to make their reservations using a travel agent.
You'll need to present a valid visa once you touch down in China. You can get one by applying with your home country's Chinese embassy before departing for China.
Read up on any travel advisories prior to your trip.
Avoid buying your tickets from travel agents based in hotels. The best rates are often to be found with travel agents based off-site.
Steer clear of gridlock by choosing not to travel on a Chinese holiday. Chinese workers get a week or two off to celebrate the following holidays: National Day, on October 1; Chinese New Year, in late January to mid-February; and Labor Day, on May 1. During these times, the Chinese travel to visit family, so the airports are crowded and difficult to navigate.
Overseas travel Web sites sometimes offer tickets for domestic Chinese travel. However, buying via these Web sites is not a smart move, since their prices are far steeper than you'd find with a travel agent.
