who has ever stopped off at Guangzhou China, lots of reviews say its rubbish, but what are your thoughts, the flight is cheap but a long stay over so cheap might not be good this time

ive been there a few yrs ago but it was only a short stop -while they took on passengers and cleaned plane ,-what do you mean by its rubbish -the airport or the city?
Can't help with this one Steve, only ever had max stopovers of 2 hours apart from once at Singapore 22 hours, we got the shuttle and toured the city, it was great!
both and not much to do there tooOriginally Posted by irishman12
looking at flights at the mo some good prices, its got me thinkingCan't help with this one Steve, only ever had max stopovers of 2 hours apart from once at Singapore 22 hours, we got the shuttle and toured the city, it was great!
Try STA and see what's on offer Steve!
its down Michael their system
how long is the stopover? yes reviews seem pretty bad -probably makes manila airport seem good when it has already been declared worst airport in the world ,what about the Etihad /pal flights for October?
Sheffield office on line at the moment, the National phone number is 03333210099 Think this No is Freephone, or at worst local rate!
longest stopover we had was in Dubai-9hrs and even though we got free hotel /transfer -by the time we got there and the hassle involved -it would probably have been better just to stay in airport .
its getting the time of together, with Ems working for the nhs trying to get 4 weeks of is very hard so we would like to go over xmas , my work closes down for xmas so that is better for me
im stopping in Guangzhou China for the first time myself next month. But its only for an hour and a half so i should be ok hopefully.
Not a very good airport for transferring.I only did the 1 time and proved to be quite lengthy.Every where you go there through transfer there are cameras pointed at you and people watching you.im stopping in Guangzhou China for the first time myself next month. But its only for an hour and a half so i should be ok hopefully.
They also go through ALL of your hand baggage again piece by piece and you get another full body pat down all the while there is a camera staring right at you.Those chinese are a funny bunch
I just get comfy and go to sleep.

If you're ever left "stranded" at ANY airport, then Singapore's the ideal place! Unbeatable for luxurious surroundings ... and there're even comfortable, indoorfacilities available.
Steve, China is what it is. I can't see Guangzhou being any different to other parts I have seen here. If you have a longer than normal stop over 'and' are allowed outside (which I am not sure if allowed) then treat it as an eye opener. It is very different to the Philippines and I think Hong Kong where you have been before. I don't know what the city is like, big by the looks on Google, I would treat it as a new experience. China is a strange place but also fun to be an observer for a few hours.
If you are restricted to the airport.... good luck lol
If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
From June of 2013, passport holders of 45 countries and regions will be granted a visa-free stay of up to 72 hours when taking an international transfer via Guangzhou Baiyun Airport.

Very pleasing to hear Arthur, we will be stopping there for 4 hours in August on our way back from Australia and I was wondering how it was we would find it.If you're ever left "stranded" at ANY airport, then Singapore's the ideal place!

Last time I was at Changi it was an RAF base and I was there with my dad watching some inter-services sports.
