| ski4don18:53 UTC20 Mar 2007 | Hi everyone,
4 of us want to book air travel on Saturday, April 28 from Wuhan to Shanghai. Because this is the Saturday at the start of the May Holiday Week, we are uncertain about waiting until we get to China to book the flight. We have tried to book through Ctrip but cannot pay because we only have USA credit cards. We could book through USA online sites but prices are about 50% higher than Ctrip. It seems our 2 choices are:
1. Book thru USA site and pay 50% more money
2. Take a chance and wait until April 17 to book flights when we arrive in Beijing
Suggestions, anyone?
Or better still, does anyone know how we can securely book these flights online using only a USA credit card?
