#Laogao E-commerce Online Information# Yesterday was the first day of pre-sale of train tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush. Due to the changes in the Spring Festival travel policy this year, the pre-sale period of train tickets was shortened to 30 days. In addition, this year's Spring Festival travel rush was relatively early compared with previous years, and it started on January 13, 2017, so netizens called this year the "most difficult year to grab tickets."
By combining the Spring Festival travel data analysis in previous years, the editor of Laogao E-commerce will tell you what transportation methods are there this year? How to reasonably avoid travel peaks? Who is grabbing train tickets?
Big data shows that among the three travel methods of train, cars and airplanes, there are great differences in booking peaks. Among them, the peak of air ticket booking came early. People who grabbed air tickets during the Chinese New Year two months before the Spring Festival reached their peak, while bus tickets only arrived at the peak of bookings a week before the Spring Festival.
In terms of trains, the difference between this year and previous years is that in order to cooperate with the adjustment of the new railway train operation chart, the pre-sale period for train ticket purchases has been shortened from the original 60 days to 30 days.
And more people will choose to go home for the New Year this year. Data from China Railway Corporation shows that in 2017, the national railway is expected to send 356 million passengers, an increase of 31.56 million passengers year-on-year, an increase of 9.7%.
The "2017 Spring Festival Travel Big Data Forecast Report" shows that the peak of train ticket booking in previous years did not appear on the sales days of the 28th and 27th of the twelfth lunar month, but appeared one week after the "key date tickets" were launched. It can be seen that picking up vacant tickets is even more popular.
However, when the ticket purchase is shortened to 30 days in advance, the report predicts that the pre-sale period for ticket purchase and the peak period of booking almost completely overlap, and the ticket grabbing army has no longer booking buffers, so the bargain picking period has been severely shortened or even "eliminated".
再加上2017年春节时间较早，务工返乡和求学返乡的人群分流时间被挤压，加重了承运负担，火车票抢票难度很可能将显著增加。
Hiking becomes a new way to go home
Users in Beijing, Chengdu and Shenzhen are most willing to "try out" and become the top three in this new way to go home.
With the upgrading of consumption concepts and the gradual popularity of online car-hailing, hitchhiking provides people with new ways to travel when they go home for the New Year.
Didi data shows that during the 2016 Spring Festival travel rush, a total of 1.9 million people from 31 provinces chose to ride together.
Hitchhiking has also received support from the Ministry of Transport. The Ministry of Transportation stated during the Spring Festival travel rush last year that the carpooling launched by the Internet platform will support it as long as it is not for profit.
The "2017 Spring Festival Travel Big Data Forecast Report" predicts that the number of cross-city hitchhiking orders will begin to increase rapidly in the week before the Spring Festival and will reach its peak 2-3 days before the Spring Festival.
The first choice for traveling in the Spring Festival travel rush - train
The "2017 Spring Festival Travel Big Data Forecast Report" shows that among the main transportation tools during the Spring Festival travel rush, trains are still unshakable, with bookings accounting for more than 60%. Although there are airplanes, cars and other transportation options, trains are still the best choice for people to travel through the Spring Festival travel rush every year.
As we grow older and our economic strength improves, more and more consumers choose airplanes. Among them, consumers under the age of 25 choose trains for Spring Festival travel, reaching more than 70%.
Let's go in batches before the New Year and go back together after the New Year
Similar to the scheduled time sorting, people went home before the New Year with a relatively orderly "rhythm". Starting from the week before the New Year, the peak of transportation of planes, trains and cars has arrived one after another, and the flow of people to the airport and train stations will reach their peak 3-5 days before the Spring Festival.
But unlike imagination, the fastest and shortest time-consuming aircraft in the mode of transportation is not the latest, but it has entered the peak of transportation in the early stage.
When we return after the New Year, after the first day of the lunar month, various means of transportation will collectively enter the busy period, and the airport, railway station and bus station will be crowded with people at the same time.
The "2017 Spring Festival Travel Big Data Forecast Report" also shows that the main Internet/software practitioners who take taxis to airports and train stations are born in the 1980s and 1990s.
Now it is becoming more and more popular to go abroad for the New Year
According to the "2017 Spring Festival Travel Big Data Forecast Report", the statistical predictions of the outbound travel data of the Spring Festival in previous years, the people of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are still at the forefront of leading new consumption, and provincial capital cities such as Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Wuhan have also begun to travel abroad for the New Year. As people's consumption level improves, traveling and spending the New Year has become a new way for people to choose.
What’s more interesting is that among the cities that love to celebrate the New Year abroad, Suzhou, a non-provincial capital city, is among the top 10.
