The 2019 travel rush, or Chunyun in Chinese, which is called "world's largest migration" will last from January 21 to March 1, reports the Chinanews.com.

It is estimated that 410 million passengers will be travelling by trains during the 40-day-period.

To improve the ticket purchasing experience of passengers, a new function will be added to the official train ticket booking website www.12306.cn and 12306 app during the travel rush.
