The arrival of the High-Speed Train (HST) in China over the last five years has had the effect of liberalising Chinese air carriers. However, Air Transport (AT) and the High-Speed Train (HST) are as yet unmeasured in relation to other market forces. This preliminary study is focused on travel time, airline and rail fares. The travel time and fare comparison analysis between AT and HST is based on three different types of routes: short, medium and long-haul journeys. Three Chinese routes and three European routes have been chosen for this comparative study. The results show that the most realistic competitive model is in medium haul city pair. Good competitive model, offering better journey times for a higher price is in Long haul city pair. Europe's city-transport access is much better than China.
