Guangzhou is mainly served by Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN), a large international hub handling most long-haul and regional flights and serving as a major southern gateway for China. Expect a mix of full-service carriers and numerous low-cost or regional airlines; fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on carrier and season. The airport sits roughly 28–30 km north of downtown Guangzhou; the metro (Line 3) links the city center in about 40–60 minutes for a modest fare, while airport express buses and taxis typically take 45–70 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. Pros: comprehensive facilities, many flight options and public-transit links. Cons: distance from the center and possible congestion at peak times.
Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport (TAO) functions as the city’s main international and domestic gateway since replacing the older Liuting field, typically serving full-service carriers and growing low-cost operations. Located about 40–45 km northeast of downtown Qingdao, travel to the city center can take roughly 30–50 minutes by expressway, 50–70 minutes by airport shuttle bus, or around an hour by taxi depending on traffic; shuttle fares and metro/express bus tickets are generally modest. The airport is usually modern and comfortable with plentiful facilities, though transfers can be lengthier due to its distance from central neighborhoods. Its strength is wide connectivity; a downside can be slightly higher transfer times and taxi costs compared with inner-city airfields.
