Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from SAN to HGH last minute?
Booking your flight from San Diego Airport to Xiaoshan Intl. Airport (HGH) at the last minute could save you a tidy sum if you strike it lucky and find a real bargain. However, fares typically don’t come down in price as the departure date nears. If you hold off, flights could also be sold out or the best seats long gone. If you’d rather not hedge your bets, book well in advance of your departure date. Keep in mind that some of the best deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your preferred airline hasn’t released tickets yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia all the time.

Can I change the date of my flight from SAN to HGH?
You can make changes to your SAN to Hangzhou Xiaoshan Intl. Airport flight through the Expedia Trips portal.
