Travel to Sichuan very cheap right now

Hi all, FYI for those who are in China and may be interested in some touring, flights to Chengdu are the lowest they've been in some time but are already starting to creep up. Last week on elong.net you could fly between Chengdu and Beijing for 290 rmb plus fees each way, this week it's already up to 430. (I'm usually happy to get this flight for 650-750) Hostel prices and entrance fees for some attractions like Emei Shan have also been slashed.
