Can children travel for free on mainland China trains?
Children measuring above 1.5m (4'11" or 150cm) in height are required to purchase regular Adult Tickets
Children between 1.2m (3'11" or 120cm) and 1.5m (4'11" or 150cm) in height require Child Tickets
Children measuring below 1.2m (3'11" or 120cm) in height may board for free only if they are sharing a seat with a paying passenger. If the child requires a seat, a Child Ticket is required.
