• Air China - Guilin to Chengdu

Departure: Guilin Liangjiang International Airport (KWL)

Flights from Guilin to Chengdu leave from Guilin Liangjiang International Airport (KWL), serving Guilin - guilin is a city of karst hills and rivers in southern China's Guangxi region, the starting point of the Li River cruise to Yangshuo and gateway to the Longji rice terraces. 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: High-speed trains link Guilin with Guangzhou in about two and a half to three hours and with Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing, while Yangshuo has its own station near Xingping. Flights connect the airport with major Chinese cities. Sights are spread over the countryside, so a private car is the easiest way to combine Guilin, Yangshuo and the terraces.

• 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: Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU) and getting into Chengdu

You arrive at Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU). 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. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your accommodation in Chengdu, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.

Many travellers continue from Chengdu to somewhere else. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Guilin to Chengdu flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Guilin to Chengdu. 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.

• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request

Flying with children, families and groups from Guilin to Chengdu

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Things to do in Chengdu when you land

Chengdu is the panda and hotpot capital of Sichuan, with the panda base, the teahouses and the Leshan giant Buddha. Start with Mount Emei, the Dujiangyan irrigation system and the Dujiangyan panda valley, then Kuanzhai Alley and Jinli Ancient Street. A tip from our desk: Tell us which airport you land at, Tianfu or Shuangliu, with your flight number and hotel name; they are about an hour apart, so this matters for your pickup.

Haqqi Tours offers guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Chengdu; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from Guilin to Chengdu

March to June and September to November are the best months, mild and green; Chengdu is cloudy and humid most of the year, summer is hot and wet, and winter is cool and grey, with mist on the mountains. On the flight from Guilin to Chengdu, 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 Chengdu to Guilin

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Chengdu to Guilin booked with the outbound is frequently cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.

How much is a flight from Guilin to Chengdu?

The cost of a flight from Guilin to Chengdu depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we check the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the electronic ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Guilin to Chengdu: how to pay less

Finding cheap flights from Guilin to Chengdu is timing plus flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds the lowest fare on the route:

• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are normally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often 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

When you send the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest Guilin to Chengdu flight first, then the alternatives.
