Your guide to booking Guangzhou flights

From booking to airport arrival, find tips to help you plan your flight with more confidence.
  • For the best chance at a low fare to Guangzhou, aim to book around 12 weeks before you fly. That window historically saves about 21% versus last-minute pricing based on KAYAK booking data over the last 12 months.
  • For flights to Guangzhou, recent KAYAK data shows that stronger deals tend to land around $913 round-trip. If you see a fare below that threshold, it's a strong deal – book before the price climbs back up.
  • If you can choose when to go, time your trip to Guangzhou around September. Round-trip fares historically average $955 that month – typically the cheapest month to travel based on the last 12 months.
  • Before you book:

    • Check the route's typical price range so you can spot a deal.
    • Confirm baggage fees and seat-selection costs on budget carriers.
    • Verify whether you need any travel documents beyond ID.
    • Pick a departure airport, since your nearest may not be the cheapest origin.
  • Shift your departure to morning to save up to $223 per round-trip. Morning flights to Guangzhou average $1,156 compared to $1,379 for afternoon flights. See the time-of-day chart above for the full breakdown.
  • Bag allowances vary by airline, fare type, cabin class and route. On flights to Guangzhou, some airlines may include bags at no extra cost. For example, China Southern includes a cabin bag and a checked bag in Economy Class. Always check the fare details before booking, since bag policies can change by ticket type.
  • Once you arrive in Guangzhou, a few great places to start are Canton Fair Complex, Beijing Road Pedestrian Street and Pazhou Complex. These are popular with first-time visitors and can give you a good feel for the area.
  • Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport offers a plethora of things to do as a visitor: for a spot of shopping, visit the one of the retail chains that sell not only souvenirs and local crafts but also books, magazines, and apparel.
  • Hungry? Hit one of the dozens of restaurants and food concession stands, some of which are open 24 hours a day. You can also choose from a plethora of options – sandwiches, pizza, hamburger and fries, or traditional Chinese cuisine.
  • Had a rough flight and want to relax during your layover? Among its many services, the airport features spa and beauty salons where you can pamper yourself at the hands of trained professionals. Short layover but you still want to relax? Head to one of the many massage chairs located throughout the airport.
  • If your flight to Guangzhou lands late and you don’t want to travel into the city at night, simply book a room in one of the many hotels located in or around the airport. For instance, the Hourly Passenger Lounge is located inside the terminal and offers a number of fully-equipped rooms.
