At present, there is only one pair of direct flights between Hong Kong and Hefei on every Monday and Friday, and it takes about 2.5 hours and generally costs more than CNY 800 / USD 113 for a single journey. So at most times, passengers need to make a transfer in Xiamen, Guilin, Shanghai or other cities, which means flights do not have many advantages over bullet trains in terms of convenience. Plus, the ticket price for taking planes is relatively higher than taking high speed trains. Therefore, high speed trains are more recommended for passengers to travel between Hong Kong and Hefei.
