Guangzhou Baiyun International (CAN) is the city’s primary international gateway and a major southern China hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers and many regional/long-haul flights. It typically supports the bulk of international and domestic connections and can be perceived as mid-to-premium priced compared with China’s secondary airports. The airport sits about 28–35 km north of downtown Guangzhou; metro Line 3 and airport express buses connect to the city in roughly 35–60 minutes, with fares generally ranging from modest metro prices to higher coach or taxi rates. Pros: wide route network, modern facilities and frequent services; cons: travel time to central districts and occasional peak-hour congestion. Foshan Shadi (FUO) and other nearby secondary fields can serve low-cost and regional carriers, positioning them as budget-friendly or local options for short-haul travel. These airports are usually closer to the western Pearl River Delta suburbs and can be reached by road in around 30–60 minutes depending on traffic; public transport options are more limited than Guangzhou Baiyun and may involve shuttle buses or transfers. Pros: shorter drives for some suburbs and potentially lower fares; cons: fewer international services, less frequent connections and more transfer needs to reach central Guangzhou. Shenzhen Bao’an (SZX), while in the neighboring city, often functions as an alternative for travelers to/from Guangzhou, with a broad mix of low-cost and full-service airlines and frequent regional flights. Ground transfer by metro plus cross-city rail or dedicated coach can take about 60–90 minutes to central Guangzhou, with coach fares and intercity rail priced variably but generally reasonable. Pros: extensive route choices and modern terminal amenities; cons: added cross-city transfer time and occasional higher intercity travel costs compared to flying into Guangzhou’s main airport. Hong Kong International (HKG) is another nearby international option used by some Guangzhou travelers; it typically hosts many long-haul carriers and is often viewed as premium-priced for certain routes. Land-crossing via high-speed rail, coach or the MTR plus a bus/taxi over the border usually takes about 1–2 hours depending on route and border formalities, with fares ranging from budget rail fares to higher airport coach or taxi charges. Pros: massive international network and high service standards; cons: border crossing time and potentially larger travel expense to reach Guangzhou itself.

Sharjah International Airport typically functions as a regional and budget-friendly gateway for the UAE, attracting many low-cost carriers and some full-service airlines serving the Middle East, South Asia and Africa. It is located about 15–20 km northeast of Sharjah city centre and can be reached by taxi in roughly 20–30 minutes depending on traffic; fares are generally lower than Dubai taxis, while public buses and shared shuttles offer cheaper options with longer journey times. Travelers often choose Sharjah for lower fares and fewer crowds than Dubai’s main hubs, but it can be less convenient for connections to Dubai’s business districts and some international services may be less frequent.
