What happens when you set this watch
We track every fare from your airport into Nanchang for November 15 to February 15, 2027, round trips of 4 to 8 nights, across every airline. The moment one drops, you get one email with the dates, the price and a link to book. Free, and you can stop any time.
Know before you go
- Bring a scope or long lens; the birds keep several hundred metres from the hides.
- Water levels vary hugely between years and change where the flocks feed; a guide who was there last week matters.
- Nanchang airport is about two hours by road to Wucheng town; a local guide with a car and boat is the practical arrangement.
