Luggage Allowance
Passengers may bring up to two pieces of luggage. Typical guidance is that each item should not exceed 160 cm in total dimensions and 25 kg in weight. Carry-on items should be kept in overhead racks or under seats for the duration of the journey.

High-speed rail offers city-center to city-center travel with frequent departures and predictable journey times compared with long-distance buses and flights. Buses require longer road travel and make multiple stops; flights have shorter airborne time but add transfer and check-in time to reach city centers. For most door-to-door journeys between Shanghai and Hengyang, high-speed rail provides a better balance of total travel time and city access.
