The sales of train tickets for the 2019 Spring Festival travel rush, or chunyun in Chinese, started last Sunday. And passengers can buy the tickets through various means, including telephone, website and smart phone app.

The 2019 Spring Festival travel rush will last from January 21 to March 1. It is estimated that 410 million passengers will be traveling by train during the 40-day chunyun, which is called "world's largest human migration". To improve passengers' ticket purchasing experience, a new function will be added to the official train ticket booking website 12306.cn, and the 12306 app during the travel rush.

The new function will automatically allocate train tickets to other buyers who have paid in advance when tickets are sold out. It will save passengers much time to book the tickets repeatedly on the website. Many people hope that 12306.cn can provide some other new functions so that they can buy the tickets more and more easily in the future.
