It is a big issue now and will at least last ten years.

Most of my schoolmates have bought train tickets to go back home. But I don't worry about it. After all, it's very convenient to travel between Shanghai and Nanjing, and I have many choices, by train, by bus, by car, or by plane. Of course, I will choose the train, and I can take a long distance train, an inter-city train or a CRH.
Hope everything will go as I wish!

I have been out to have an interview today.
due to the job, i can not go home this year, and Chunyun may not affect me not.

thanks to the development of cyber ticketing and real name ticket mechanism, we can buy a train ticket home easily. Wish everyone a happy new year

We can get more convenient from the internet booking.

happy new year

Refreshing my memory, the harshness to buy even a single ticket is coming back to my mind now though it actually happened years ago. When I was in college in China, the Chun-Yun gave me hard time every year when I was eager to go back home at the end of each semester.
The problem has never been solved for and every year people working and studying long distance away from their hometown are longing for the resolution yet fail to get their goals eventually and regretfully. It is time for China government from Central to Provincial to Local level to take actions to deal with this problem for people.
As time is moving along and the public transition system is growing strong, China should be able to provide an effective resolution to the Chun-Yun national wide. The following is my viewpoints regarding how to crack this troublesome case：
1. Set up an operation research team at the Ministry of Railways with firm commitment to resolution to the Chun-Yun;
2. The Ministry of Railways facilitates the supply-chain management and logistics;
3. Set up tickets preservation system taking advantages of advanced IT and Internet technology;
And last. Government at all levels supports and guarantees any decisions or actions taken by the Ministry of Railways regarding the resolution to the Chun_Yun;
Hope the problem of Chun-Yun to be solved for as soon as possible!
Hope everybody escape from the suffer of Chun-Yun!
Happy New Year!
And Have a Productive and Fruitful New Year!

Happy  New  Year　to  all  of  you!

before the "chunyun" period beginning, i have decided to depart in air, i think it is not worth spending too much time on the road homing even if you get a train ticket, of course you should afford the cost of air.
importantly best wishes to our forum, day day up ,hahaha~

Happy new year!

We'are happy to know that now we can take subway directly to the BeiJing West station...

Thanks for bengdi1986's kindness(give me 20 币),lol。
I think of a good question: why is "chunyun" so crowded every year. From the answer of the question, we may find solution.
