Cheap Flights from Guangzhou to Zhengzhou Starting at $72

Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport (CGO) functions as the city’s main international and domestic gateway and is typically positioned as a major hub for central China, often serving connecting routes. Carriers are usually a mix of full-service Chinese airlines and several low-cost operators on domestic and regional flights. The airport lies about 37–40 km southeast of downtown Zhengzhou; travel to the city center can be by airport express bus (roughly 35–60 minutes, fares commonly low to moderate) or by taxi and rideshare (around 35–50 minutes, fares varying by time and traffic). Advantages include a modern terminal and frequent connections; downsides can be the travel time to downtown and occasional peak-hour congestion.

Guangzhou is served primarily by Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN), a major international hub handling full-service carriers and many regional and long-haul flights; a smaller role is played by nearby Foshan and other secondary fields for low-cost or cargo operations. CAN sits about 28–35 km north of the city centre, with travel typically taking 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Options include the metro (Line 3) in roughly 30–40 minutes, airport express or intercity trains around 25–35 minutes, and taxis or rideshares that can be faster but cost more; fares can vary widely by time and service level. Pros: modern facilities, extensive route network and good connectivity. Cons: distance from downtown and occasional peak-hour congestion can add time and complexity to transfers.
