Departure: Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU)

Flights from Chengdu to Shenzhen leave from Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU), serving Chengdu - chengdu is the panda and hotpot capital of Sichuan, with the panda base, the teahouses and the Leshan giant Buddha. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: Chengdu's high-speed trains reach Chongqing in about an hour to an hour and a half, Xi'an in about three and a half hours and Leshan and Mount Emei in about an hour. The metro links both airports and the stations with the centre. For the panda base at opening time and day trips to Leshan, Emei and Dujiangyan, a private car is the most comfortable choice.

• Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book

Arrival: Shenzhen Airport (SZX) and getting into Shenzhen

The flight lands at Shenzhen Airport (SZX). Shenzhen is China's tech city on the Hong Kong border, with the skyscrapers of Futian, the OCT art district and Window of the World. From arrivals you have taxis, local transport and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Chengdu to Shenzhen journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Onward flights or trains from Shenzhen the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Chengdu to Shenzhen departure that leaves a safe connection.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Chengdu to Shenzhen flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Chengdu to Shenzhen. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare

Flying with children, families and groups from Chengdu to Shenzhen

Families fly the Chengdu to Shenzhen route with us every week. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the airline offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the carrier for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Best time to fly from Chengdu to Shenzhen

October to December is the best season, sunny and dry; spring is mild and humid, summer from May to September is hot and wet with typhoons possible from July to September, and winter is short and mild. On the flight from Chengdu to Shenzhen, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Shenzhen to Chengdu

We book the return leg from Shenzhen to Chengdu just as easily, typically on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Chengdu to Shenzhen?

"How much is the Chengdu to Shenzhen flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours can provide the current cost for your date within minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Chengdu to Shenzhen flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Chengdu to Shenzhen: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Chengdu to Shenzhen is usually booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our staff applies on every booking:

• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
• Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Chengdu to Shenzhen that day and what a slightly different day would cost.
