Can anyone recommend a website that publishes domestic airfares and
schedules within China.

Where these exist they are incomplete, or out of date, or in Chinese
only, or all of the above (I'm assuming a Chinese site is no good for
you). Where they are in English and aimed at foreigners, and even when
they claim to be offering discounts, in fact they are almost always
charging you much higher prices than you can obtain in China itself--not
unusually double. Almost no one, even if they are booking to fly the
same day, pays the full published rate in China, and slowness aside, the
airline's own sites, which will only give you published prices, are
hopeless.

I am chiefly
interested in two segments, the first being Kunming - Lijiang return and the
second Kunming - Guilin one way. I understand there is jet service (737) to
Lijiang and there is a daily flight to Guilin from Kunming daily. Would
like to see schedule and prices. Thanks is advance.

This from a printed timetable which will change next month:

There are about 15 flights a day each way between Kunming and Lijiang

There are three or four flight a day between Kunming and Guilin.

The last thing you need to or should do is to book before you reach
Kunming. There are endless travel agencies in the main road running into
town from the railway station. Just pop in two or three of those, ask
the price (no English spoken but the timetables are in English/pinyin as
well as characters) and ticket prices will be shown to you using a
calculator. Whatever price you are given, ask for something cheaper
(mime your disappointment, if necessary). You'll have your tickets at a
considerable discount on the prices available from overseas, within 30
minutes or so.
