👤 Explanation of single travel and room sharing policy
The Kunlun Hao supports single-person registration. If you choose a 2-person cabin (such as a double upper-lower soft sleeper or a double lower-berth soft sleeper), you can apply for room sharing with the travel agency. Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Service will assist in matching a same-gender travel companion based on the current registration situation, to reduce the cost of solo travel as much as possible.
However, please note:
Whether room sharing is successful depends on the remaining availability and the gender ratio of registrations for that departure date; it is not guaranteed to be arranged;
If room sharing is not arranged close to departure, you may need to pay the single supplement or upgrade to a single room;
4-person cabins are usually easier to fill and offer better value for money, making them suitable for solo travelers with an open mind.
It is recommended to register as early as possible and clearly state your intention to share a room, so that staff can prioritize coordination.
