Looking into the IC as well - The prices seem reasonable enough, and hopefully I can snag a decent fare. There seems to be a CZ connection available from CAN which I don't think was mentioned and I can't seem to find the SHA fare that was mentioned....any ideas? Not really worried about the cost, but rather would like to avoid any significant time in Chengdu and would like to spend as much time as possible in Jiuzhaigou
