Xi'an > Zhangjiajie nonstop flights are seasonal only, roughly late May to late October. Outside that time frame, you'll either need to connect or use alternate transport method. Because domestic flights can be delayed, you do run the risk of misconnecting if you try to go flight-to-flight and don't leave a big transfer time cushion. Or you can fly Xi'an - Changsha then take train or bus to ZJJ.

There is a direct train that connects Xi'an with Zhangjiajie. It's not quick (About 16 hours) and leaves at a highly inconvenient time (Circa 1:00am arriving at about 7:00pm) but at least it'll get you there.

There is also direct bus option but of course not comfortable.
