Flying with children, families and groups from Shenzhen to Beijing

Three things to know about the flight from Shenzhen to Beijing with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and generally a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Tell us the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.

Things to do in Beijing when you land

Beijing is China's capital: the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square at its centre, the Great Wall in the hills to the north, and two airports - Capital (PEK) about 30 km north-east of the centre and Daxing (PKX) about 50 km to the south. Start with the Summer Palace, a hutong rickshaw ride and the Lama Temple, then the 798 Art District and the Olympic Park and Bird's Nest. A tip from our desk: Say whether you land at Capital (PEK) or Daxing (PKX) - they are 80 km apart - and send the hotel name in Chinese if you have it; a working internet connection for maps and translation is worth arranging before you land.

We offer tours and transfers in Beijing as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.

Best time to fly from Shenzhen to Beijing

Flights from Shenzhen to Beijing run all year, many flights a day. Spring and autumn are best; summer is hot and humid; winter cold and dry; the National Day holiday in early October is crowded everywhere. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.

Return flight from Beijing to Shenzhen

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Beijing to Shenzhen 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 Shenzhen to Beijing?

"How much is the Shenzhen to Beijing 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 provides the current cost for your date in a few 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 Shenzhen to Beijing flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Shenzhen to Beijing: how to pay less

A cheap Shenzhen to Beijing flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we check for you:

• 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
• 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

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

How to book flights from Shenzhen to Beijing with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Shenzhen to Beijing is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you let us know in the WhatsApp chat when we message you to confirm. We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.

• Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
• Step 2 - we message you through WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
• Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
• Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Beijing

If plans change, the same WhatsApp thread handles it. We explain the airline's change and refund rules for the fare you chose before any payment, so there are no surprises later.

• Air China - Shenzhen to Beijing
• Shenzhen Airlines - Shenzhen to Beijing
• China Southern Airlines - Shenzhen to Beijing

Departure: Shenzhen Airport (SZX)

Your journey starts at Shenzhen Airport (SZX). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. High-speed trains link Futian and Shenzhen North with Hong Kong West Kowloon in about fifteen to twenty minutes and with Guangzhou in about thirty to forty-five minutes, and the Luohu crossing can be passed on foot. A modern metro links the airport and all districts, while cross-border transfers and trips to Dafen and Dameisha are easiest by private car.

• Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your hotel in Shenzhen to Shenzhen Airport
• Just ask about the terminal and fast-track options at Shenzhen Airport
• 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

Arrival: Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) and getting into Beijing

Arrival is at Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Beijing is China's capital: the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square at its centre, the Great Wall in the hills to the north, and two airports - Capital (PEK) about 30 km north-east of the centre and Daxing (PKX) about 50 km to the south. We provide airport transfers in Beijing with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.

Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Shenzhen to Beijing flight

Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Shenzhen to Beijing. Full-service fares usually 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.

• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
• 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
