After reaching large-scale operations, the price of a one-way trip between Shenzhen and Zhuhai will be about CNY200 to CNY300 (USD28 to USD42), Zhao noted, adding that a ferry ticket between Shekou in Shenzhen and Jiuzhou in Zhuhai costs CNY140, and the long-distance bus is about CNY100.
Damn. USD22 is roughly what I have to pay for a 1 way trip of just 15-20 km on the PUBLIC TRAIN where I live. This trip is about 50 km (I think?).
So it’s what, a small electric helicopter basically?
yup
I pay around USD30 for a 90 minute bus ride into the city from where I live. I would happily pay rates like this for a 20 minute air taxi.
30 dollars for a commute? Jfc!!
Aa, to be fair not my regular commute. I don’t go into the city normally from where I live, I work in my town. But for weekend trips or the like.
I see, I see. Still expensive! And less fun than an electric plane.
The cheapest 90minute bus Ive taken is Amoy bus No.641, 2RMB, 48km. Quanzhou bus No.K207, 7RMB, 47km. Nan’an bus No.126, 10RMB,45km. I mean public transportation should be paid by the gov
