Cheap Flights from Harbin to Qingdao — $65

Harbin Taiping International Airport (HRB) functions as the main international and domestic gateway to Heilongjiang province, handling most full-service carriers and a growing number of regional budget airlines. Located about 37 km southwest of Harbin city centre, transfer options include airport shuttle buses (roughly 40–70 minutes depending on route), taxis (30–50 minutes; fares often higher than in-city runs), and private transfers. Trains and metro connections can be limited or require a short taxi link from nearby stations. Pros: full-service facilities, seasonal international routes and reliable ground links; cons: a longer commute to downtown and occasional peak-season crowds, so allow extra time for winter conditions and immigration.

Fly direct from Harbin to Qingdao for the quickest, most convenient journey between these two vibrant Chinese cities — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting routes can occasionally be cheaper, a nonstop flight saves hours and delivers a more comfortable, reliable travel experience worth the upgrade.

Qingdao is served mainly by Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport (TAO), positioned as the city’s international gateway and a fast-growing hub for full-service and low-cost carriers alike; it typically handles most long-haul and regional flights while the older Liuting Airport has been repurposed. Jiaodong lies about 39–45 km northeast of downtown Qingdao, and travelers can reach the city by high-speed maglev or intercity rail in roughly 20–30 minutes, by express bus in 40–60 minutes, or by taxi in 35–60 minutes depending on traffic; fares vary from modest rail/bus prices to mid-range taxi fares. Pros: modern facilities, frequent connections and efficient rail links; cons: greater distance from the center than the old airport and occasional peak-period congestion.
