Cheap Flights from Guangzhou to Ningbo — $52

Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN) is the city’s main international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carrier flights while also serving many Chinese domestic routes. Major airlines such as China Southern, Air China and several international carriers typically operate here, and fares can range from competitive to premium depending on route and season. The airport sits about 28–32 km north of downtown Guangzhou; metro Line 3 and the Airport Express connect to the city in roughly 30–45 minutes with fares usually modest, or taxi rides that can take 40–60 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. Pros: extensive international connections, modern facilities and multiple lounge/transfer options; cons: size can make transfers long and peak-hour road links may be congested. Foshan Shadi Airport (FUO) and other nearby secondary fields can be used for some regional and low-cost flights serving the Pearl River Delta area, though they are not Guangzhou’s primary international gateways. Airlines operating here are often budget or regional carriers offering domestic and short-haul services, which can sometimes mean lower fares for nearby point-to-point travel. These airports are typically 30–60 km from central Guangzhou; access is usually by road with shuttle buses or taxis taking 40–90 minutes depending on distance and traffic, and fares varying accordingly. Pros: may offer cheaper or more direct regional options and shorter queues; cons: fewer international connections and more limited ground transport links compared with the main airport.

The airport sits about 20–30 km southwest of Ningbo’s central business districts; surface journeys typically take 30–50 minutes by taxi or car depending on traffic, with fares roughly in the mid-range for Chinese cities, while airport shuttle buses and occasional metro or express bus links can cost notably less.
