Guangzhou is served mainly by Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN), a major international hub handling long-haul, regional and domestic flights with carriers like China Southern, Hainan Airlines and many global alliances; it can feel more premium and busy than smaller regional fields. The airport sits about 28–35 km north of the city center, with metro Line 3 linking to downtown in roughly 40–60 minutes and fares typically in the low single-digit yuan range; airport express buses and taxis take around 45–70 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. Pros: extensive route network, modern facilities and numerous lounges; cons: long transit distances and peak-hour congestion can add extra time and occasional queues.
Beijing is served primarily by the international hub Beijing Capital International (PEK) and the newer Beijing Daxing International (PKX), with the former traditionally handling many legacy carriers and the latter attracting a mix of international and budget airlines as operations shift. Fares can vary: PEK often appears in mid-to-premium ranges while PKX can be competitive for long-haul and low-cost options depending on the carrier. Both airports sit 25–50 km from downtown Beijing; typical transfers include airport express trains (30–50 minutes), intercity high-speed links, taxis or app-based rides (40–70 minutes) and airport shuttles, with taxi fares usually in the moderate range and express train tickets cheaper. PEK is convenient for established international connections; PKX is modern and spacious but can involve longer surface travel times depending on your origin, so weigh comfort against transit time when choosing.
