1303/1304 has stopovers at Bazhou, Renqiu, Raoyang, Shenzhou, Hengshui, Dayingzhen, Linqing, Liaocheng, Yanggu, Taiqian, Liangshan, Yuncheng, Heze, Dingtao, Caoxian, Shangqiu, Ninglingxian, Lankao, Kaifeng
 

Flights VS. High Speed Trains

In addition, there are 2 pairs of flights a day between with duration around 1.5 hours. However, since the airports are far from the city center, it does not differ much if you take the transfer time into consideration. The flight ticket price is usually higher compared with rail service, thus trains, especially the high speed ones are more recommended due to their frequency and reasonable ticket price.
