In the case of a small price difference, which is the priority, high-speed rail or plane?

1. depends on the distance traveled. Where the high-speed rail can reach within 3-4 hours, the high-speed rail wins completely. Considering that high-speed railway station is often close to the city, the airport is not necessarily.

When you get on the high-speed train and are ready to leave, it is possible that the plane has just arrived at the airport. However, if the passenger flow is large or the flight duration is more than 2 hours less than that of the high-speed rail, you can choose the plane.

It depends on the itinerary. The weather has a greater impact on the plane than the high-speed rail, so it is recommended to take the high-speed rail if the itinerary is relatively tight. From Beijing to Shanghai, the high-speed rail fare is the same as the plane fare, so choosing a plane seems to be a more choice, because: the high-speed rail needs more than 6 hours, and it needs to calculate the extra commuting time of 1-2 hours to high-speed railway station and then to the final destination. The flight time of the plane is two hours. Even if three hours are allocated to the airport and security check, it will be more than two hours faster than the high-speed rail. Therefore, although high-speed railway station is close to the urban area, it still has some commuting. The probability of flight delay between big cities is relatively low.

From Beijing to Hohhot, the price is flat, and I will choose the high-speed rail. Because: the high-speed train takes less than 3 hours, and the extra 2 hours arrive at the station, go into battle and reach the destination. The plane flies for 2 hours, and the extra 3 hours are planned to go to the airport, pass the security check, leave the airport and reach the destination.

There are many high-speed trains, and the itinerary can be flexible. The above is personal experience. When I choose transportation, I will consider the time from my location to my final destination. If we only consider the running time of a certain vehicle, I'm sure the plane is the fastest.
