Before the opening of commercial operation, the authors conducted a sample survey on passengers and staffs at Changsha Huanghua International Airport, to get information of the willingness of the target passenger’s ridership and acceptable fares of the rail. Passenger’s price sensitivity of Changsha Maglev Express is calculated, and the price deciding work of Changsha Maglev Express is contributed.
