Ground Transportation
Taxis
Taxis are available at the official taxi stand located outside the arrivals hall. The trip to Lijiang Old Town takes about 30-40 minutes and costs approximately 80-120 CNY. It is recommended to have the driver use the meter or agree on a price before starting the journey. Ride-hailing services like Didi Chuxing are also a common and convenient option.
Rental Cars
Car rental counters for companies like China Auto Rental (CAR) and eHi Car Services can be found in the arrivals hall. Renting a car offers flexibility for exploring the region's scenic areas. Note that foreign drivers are required to have a valid Chinese driver's license; an International Driving Permit (IDP) is generally not sufficient on its own.
Public Transportation
The Airport Shuttle Bus is the main public transport link to the city. Buses typically run in accordance with flight arrival times. The most common route goes to the Blue Sky Hotel (Lantian Binguan) near the Old Town. The fare is around 20 CNY per person, and the journey takes approximately 40-50 minutes.
