tax to the airport, and a taxi to the airport
takes about 40 minutes and costs about RMB75-80.
There
is no public bus to or from the airport. Upon
arrival, there are a few transfer services to
the city but the service is very unreliable. From
the city, an infrequent airport shuttle bus leaves
from the Guanfang Hotel. The best thing to do
is to check with the hotel and the airport about
up to date public transport information.
