Post subject: travelling in China during this season??

Does anyone have input on whether this is the best time to go to yunnan? I heard that travel bookings are down, esp during this period because of a number of factors. Would this be a good time (if u are stuck in Shanghai) to travel around China because crowds would be low and tickets easier to come by? Would it be BAU (biz as usual) for hotels and entertainment? Please correct me if I am wrong and thanks in advance.

Just checked the airfares- not reasonable- not worth going. I think I'll give it a miss.

www.9588.com is a good place to check airfares

I just checked and a flight from Shanghai - Hothot, July24, is 1220RMB (170USD)
A flight from Shanghai to Kunming, July 22nd is 1140RMB

^^^ Beijing Travel Agent?

try ctrip also...

If there is ever an issue, and we have had only one in the 20 or so times we have used them...You can go to the office and resolve it in person.
