Why are train soft sleepers more expensive than high-speed trains and planes, and so many people do it?

The price of train soft sleeper is even more expensive than air ticket, but there are still many people who are more willing to choose soft sleeper, which naturally makes sense.

First, convenience

The airport is often in the suburbs far away from the city center. It often takes nearly an hour to get from the city center to the airport, and time and money are very expensive. Most of the railway stations are located in the city center, which can be reached by convenient public transportation, and the travel cost is relatively low, which has great advantages in convenience.

Second, comfort.

The comfort of economy class is not flattering. Closed space is not an ideal choice because of its poor air quality, noisy environment and narrow seats. There is no doubt about the comfort of soft sleeper, and the carriage space, environmental sanitation, crew and bedding arrangement are impeccable. Therefore, in terms of comfort, soft sleeper is far superior to airplane.

Third, punctuality.

This plane is often criticized for being late. It seems normal to be late, and punctuality is great luck. It's really annoying to wait for a long time without knowing when the end point is. If it's a short flight, going back and forth to the airport and waiting time, I'm afraid the train is enough to reach the destination. However, trains are rarely late, and punctuality has obvious advantages. Choosing a soft sleeper by train is not only comfortable, but also can arrange your trip in advance in an orderly way.

Fourth, exclusive space.

Compared with the open space in the aircraft cabin, the soft sleeper enjoys a more secret and independent space. A door separates a private room, and there are generally four bunk beds in the private room, which is independent and private.

Comparatively speaking, soft sleeper has obvious advantages in convenience, comfort, punctuality and exclusive space. Although the ticket price is more expensive than high-speed rail and plane, the cost performance is still very high, so many people will choose soft sleeper.
