China Railway: It is impossible to give third-party platforms "priority ticket purchase rights"
Today, the railway department began selling train tickets for October 3rd, with sufficient remaining tickets in all directions. From September 28th to October 2nd, there are still remaining votes. Tickets for pre-sale periods before September 27th are sufficient in all directions. According to the demand for passenger flow, the railway department will add tickets for more than 100 passenger trains during the holiday, which will be available for sale on September 18th and can increase the daily passenger capacity by more than 70000 seats. From September 13th to 18th, the railway department sold a total of 111 million train tickets.
According to the travel needs of passengers, the railway department has arranged to open more than 100 additional passenger trains for the National Day holiday. These trains will run on September 28th, and tickets will be available for sale on September 18th. The main directions for adding trains are: Nanchang to Guangzhou, Wuhan to Guangzhou, Changsha to Nanchang, Nanchang to Shanghai, Xiamen to Shanghai, Shenzhen to Changsha, etc. Based on the pre-sale and standby ticket data of train tickets, as well as the railway transportation capacity, the railway department will also timely increase the number of passenger trains in popular directions and hot periods.

Vacation travelers are highly concentrated in their travels, and train tickets are in short supply in some popular directions and hot periods. Passengers can choose to purchase tickets through alternate purchasing, intermediate transfer, and other methods. They can also choose staggered travel based on the availability of tickets in different time periods and directions.
In recent years, a differentiated floating pricing mechanism has been implemented for the ticket prices of high-speed trains, mainly based on market supply and demand relationships and passenger flow patterns. The highest price limit is the published ticket price, and a multi level, high and low price floating strategy is implemented by time period, seat type, and section. This year's National Day holiday, high-speed rail still implements differentiated ticket prices. For example, the ticket prices for high-speed trains between Beijing and Shanghai are as high as 667 yuan for second-class seats and as low as 404 yuan. Passengers can choose according to their needs.

Railway 12306 has never authorized any third-party platform to sell train tickets, nor can it give third-party platforms the so-called "priority ticket purchase rights". Third party platforms may retain user information during the process of purchasing tickets for passengers, which not only poses traps such as surcharges, acceleration packages, bundled sales services, but also poses a risk of personal information leakage. Passengers must purchase tickets through official railway channels, identify the railway 12306 website, and pay attention to protecting legal rights and personal information security.
