Practical Information for China Railway Travelers

Luggage icon
Luggage Guidelines on China Railway services. Traveling between Chongqing and Zhangjiajie follows national rules for carry-on and checked items. Below are key points to know when bringing luggage aboard these trains:
Luggage Allowance
Passengers may bring two standard pieces of luggage free of charge, generally limited by size rather than strict weight. Large suitcases should fit in designated luggage areas; confirm dimensions with the operator before travel.
Storage Facilities
Most Chinese express trains offer overhead racks and luggage areas at carriage ends. Sleeper cars have space for bags near berths, and staff can advise on storing larger items safely during overnight journeys.
Special Items
For bicycles, musical instruments or bulky sports gear, check specific carriage regulations in advance. Some items may require advance notice or carriage fees and are subject to space availability at boarding.
