The airport is northeast of Beijing, and the station is in the southern of the city. I suggest taking a taxi, probably 150 yuan or so. | 2010-03-17 18:06:08 (GMT-6) | Patrick: | How far away is the train station from the airport? | 2010-02-07 15:12:26 (GMT-6) | Alex: | Also, both 1st and 2nd class was available from Beijing. First was sold out from Tianjin until the departure 30 minutes later, so we took 2nd instead. | 2010-02-07 14:39:39 (GMT-6) | Alex: | Helena, we bought our tickets at the Beijing South station on the same day as the trip. With a departure every 15-20 minutes, no problem at all. | 2010-02-07 13:38:10 (GMT-6) | Helena: | Hi, how can I purchase the Tianjin Beijing ticket inadvance? Or can I easily get the ticket for same day departure? | 2009-03-13 11:24:12 (GMT-6) | Patrick: | Thank you for the information, this is exactly what I needed for my upcoming trip to Beijing. |
