The business class cabin is really nice - EXCEPT the two interior seats have no divider between them - which makes for a bad experience -especially when the person next to you coughs excessively with no protection. Basically, the person is looking at you and coughing at you the WHOLE FLIGHT. Most major airlines have a sliding divider you can close for privacy and safety reasons. The window seats do not have this problem - so if you book business class and are traveling solo - make sure to get a window seat - I didn't and regretted it.

  • How long is the flight to Guangzhou?

    You can fly out of New Zealand to Guangzhou, China, from either Auckland or Wellington. This isn’t great news for South Islanders, but just hop in the car, head north and she’ll be right. In terms of total travel time once you take off, the shorter flights take about 12h 40min from Auckland, with the longer ones taking just over 33h. Departing from Wellington, your flight will take between 12h 40min and 14h 30min to land in Guangzhou.

  • Are there direct flights to Guangzhou?

    Unfortunately, there aren’t presently any direct flights between New Zealand and Guangzhou. The durations of Guangzhou flight deals all depend on the length of the layovers rather than their number, so you can look for either on Cheapflights. One of the shortest routes is a one-stop flight from Auckland Airport (AKL) to Guangzhou Baiyun Airport (CAN). This makes a stop at Shanghai PuDong Airport (PVG) on the way. A very common two-stop route is to once again leave from Auckland and fly first to Sydney Kingsford Smith (SYD), then to Manila Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL). Two slightly longer, albeit one-stop, routes are to either fly via Melbourne Airport (MEL) or via Manila without going first to Sydney. All of these flights finally land at Guangzhou Airport, Guangzhou.

  • How do you get from Guangzhou Airport to the city centre?

    It’s about 31 km from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport to the centre of Guangzhou. A faster way to get between them is to take a taxi or use a hire car if you’ve booked one for your stay. These will take about 30min to make the journey. A more cost-effective way is to get onto the Line 3 subway train, which will generally take a little over 1h. If you prefer to take a bus, this will usually be just under a 55min trip on the No. 2 Airport Express.

  • What are some things to do in Guangzhou?

    Fun for the whole family can be found at one of the most popular attractions in Guangzhou, Chimelong Tourist Resort. It’s a theme park that’s also a safari park, a water park and a bird park, and it always finds time to host an international circus. A perhaps unexpected landmark in Guangzhou is Sacred Heart Cathedral. It’s not a historical building either – daily mass is held in Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean and English. The high-tech central business district of Guangzhou is Huacheng Square, with its ultra-modern architecture. At night, the eye-catching Canton Tower is colourfully lit up, rising some 600 metres into the sky above the city. The trendy district in Guangzhou is the Redtory complex of fashion stores, art studios and galleries, exhibitions and trendy chic coffee shops.

  • Do I need a passport or visa to fly to Guangzhou?

    You will need a visa to enter China and visit Guangzhou. You can complete the application form online, but you must print it and either post or courier it to the Chinese Embassy in New Zealand. You can also submit it in person, if you live close enough to one, or have your travel agent submit it for you. The processing time averages four days, and your visa will be valid for 90 or 180 days, depending on whether you get a single entry or double entry visa.

  • What does CAN mean?

    This is defined as Guangzhou Baiyun Airport (CAN). Codes like CAN are often used to just call airports uniquely.

  • What airport do you fly into for flights to Guangzhou?

    Travellers will need to book flights to Baiyun (CAN) if they wish to fly to Guangzhou. The Guangzhou airport is 29.8 km from the city centre.
