Q: Any other sites to buy Airline tickets online with Union Pay?

I hate Ctrips, sucks.

Any other site we can use our China Union pay cards online to plane tickets? IF I pay at an agency it cost 2x's as much. Trying to visit the states during the holiday.

Thank you

They recently bought Ctrip, but the 2 sites still operate separately. It's cheaper than Ctrip and with more options, the only draw back is there's no English site. All the Chinese people I know use it.

Also try elong.com and I think agoda.com accept unionpay too.

Thank you, Elong was perfect and the price list was updated unlike Ctrips.

I don't know any other website, but I instead always look for the Chinese with Mc/Visa card, and I ask for the booking from Western websites with immediate cash Rmb refund.

In present city, Chinese dental assistant make all my online purchases, and in other cities, I was asking CMB's managers to make my online purchases.

Just a 2016 year update, now that foreigners can use Alipay on our cell phones I was able to pay for my plane ticket on Elong with a simple scan of my iPhone & Alipay. Soooooo easy.

Can you use Alipay on Western websites, too?
