Cheap Flights from Guangzhou to Busan — $56

Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN) serves as the city’s primary international hub and handles the bulk of long-haul and regional services, while a much smaller number of domestic-only fields may be used for niche routes. Major airlines such as China Southern and other full-service carriers typically dominate, with some low-cost and regional operators present on shorter sectors. The airport is about 28–40 km north of central Guangzhou; metro and express bus links usually take 30–60 minutes, taxis or rideshares often 30–50 minutes depending on traffic with fares commonly in the mid-range for Chinese cities. Pros: extensive international connectivity, modern facilities; cons: can be busy at peak times and transfers sometimes require long walks.

Busan is served primarily by Gimhae International Airport (PUS), which functions as the city’s main domestic and secondary international gateway. It typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines on routes across Korea, Japan, China and Southeast Asia, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid-tier depending on season and carrier. The airport sits about 20–25 km west of downtown Busan; travel options include the light rail and metro (roughly 40–50 minutes, low single-digit fares), airport limousine buses (around 45–60 minutes, moderate fares), taxis (30–45 minutes, higher cost) and private transfers. Pros: compact terminal, frequent domestic connections and a straightforward layout for transfers. Cons: fewer long-haul nonstop options than larger international hubs and occasional crowding during peak holiday periods.
