Flexible schedules favored

Though the holiday officially spans Feb 4 to 10, many choose to leave their office in advance or postpone the return date. In this way, they will manage to avoid the crowds at the airports, and save a considerable sum on hotels and flight tickets.

If you haven't planned anything yet, here is an important tip – leave before Jan 31 or after Feb 7. The most expensive time to travel is between Feb 2 and 6, with a whopping average of over 10,000 yuan per person.
