Comnect in Chengdu or Xian?
Going from Lhasa to Guilin. There are no direct flights, so I have to connect, which I understand is not ideal in China. I can connect in Chengdu on CA with an hour and twenty minute layover. Or in Xian on MU with three and a half hours. The MU flights are longer and with the layover arrive much later, but it looks like I can probably arrange FC much cheaper on MU. Both connections are published by the respective airlines' schedule apps - the MCT in Chengdu is 60 minutes and in Xian is 90 minutes. That said, all other things equal, I'd prefer the shorter flights and layover, but a misconnect would suck. Any advice from experienced China fliers?
