Frequently asked questions about Nanjing 南京FAQ What is the best way to get to Nanjing Lukou International Airport?
NOTE:- Nanjing lies in a bowl in which dusty polluted air can become trapped. For this reason Nanjing Lukou International Airpor is regularly fog-bound, particularly in the early morning. If you are taking a morning flight out of Nanjing and have an onward flight to catch it is wise to allow extra time to make the connection.
It is also a long way to Nanjing's Lukou airport, and for many of us that is a lot of money in a taxi. As a point of referernce, a one way taxi journey from the city centre Xinjiekou to Lukou airport shall set you back about ¥100 plus ¥20 for the road toll a few kilometres from the airport itself. Here are some useful alternatives.
