Ground Transportation
Taxis
Taxis are readily available at a designated taxi stand outside the arrivals hall. The journey to downtown Qiqihar is approximately 15-20 kilometers and takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. Fares are metered and typically cost around 30-50 CNY. It is advisable to have your destination address written in Chinese.
Rental Cars
Car rental services are available, primarily from major Chinese companies like China Auto Rental (Shenzhou) and eHi Car Services. It is highly recommended to book in advance online or via their apps. A physical counter may not be present in the terminal; instead, a representative will often meet you upon arrival. Note that foreign visitors typically require a valid Chinese driver's license to rent a car, as an International Driving Permit (IDP) is generally not accepted on its own.
Public Transportation
There are two main public transit options. The Airport Shuttle Bus is the most common choice, with its schedule coordinated with flight arrivals and departures. It provides service between the airport and key points in the city center, such as the Civil Aviation Ticket Office. Additionally, Qiqihar City Bus Route No. 16 serves the airport, offering a more economical but potentially slower alternative with more stops.
