Can Guangzhou Baiyun Airport stay open all night?

First of all, I am a civil aviation worker, and my job is at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport.

Spending the night at Baiyun International Airport is not a problem, it depends on whether you want to be comfortable or make do. Because my company operates in T1 (that is, Terminal 1), I only write about how to stay overnight in T1.

1. Comfort type: On the first floor of the departure hall of Terminal 1, which is the floor at the subway entrance, there are paid small single rooms. To put it bluntly, they are similar to capsule hotels. That kind of room. However, the upper and lower spaces are not as oppressive as capsule hotels. The billing method is based on hourly charges, and the charges are different at different times.

2. There is a rest area for overnight passengers at gates 28-29 of the departure hall in Terminal 1. This is free. But the resting environment is not very good. After all, there are people coming and going nearby, and different tourists are resting. Late at night, a child's cry can keep you awake. And there are handles in the middle of the bench, so you won’t be too comfortable lying down on it.

3. Near Gate 3 of the departure hall of Terminal 1, there is a third-party service company that specializes in helping passengers book hotels. It is outsourced by the airport, but is also under the supervision of the airport. They can help you book a room. As long as you book through them, a hotel car will take you back as early as possible.

If you are departing from T2 (that is, Terminal 2), among the above-mentioned methods, the most comfortable one in terms of comfort level is the third one. After all, it is a paid hotel. , you can ask to be sent to T1 or T2; the second is the paid capsule room, because after you get up, you have to take the free shuttle bus from Gate 10 of the departure hall of T1 to T2; and the last one is No. 28-29, which sleeps on the benches in the lobby. Door to overnight seating area.

As for whether these are available in T2, they should be available except for capsule hotel rooms.

If your flight takes off at noon in the early morning, or it is already late at night when you arrive at Baiyun Airport, you can only face two choices: choose a high-priced hotel near the airport or stay overnight at the airport. It must be unsafe to stay in a hotel alone. In fact, choosing to stay overnight at the airport is a safe and economical way. Friendly reminder from this girl: If you encounter a comfortable overnight airport like Baiyun Airport, then there is no problem in setting up camp for two days! Not only can you stay here all night, but you can also start your next journey happily and comfortably.

1. Convenience and comfort: according to the actual test, it is completely OK to stay overnight

The rest area of ??Baiyun Airport is not only spacious and comfortable, but also most of the chairs in the lounge have no handles, so you can lie down and rest comfortably. . Moreover, the airport's convenience facilities are also very comprehensive. Whether it is 24-hour hot water, toilets or restaurants, they are all open all day long, and basic daily needs can be fully guaranteed.

Of course, the biggest feature of Baiyun Airport is its two beautiful terminals! Previously, Baiyun Airport only had one terminal, T1, but with the opening of the new terminal T2 at the end of last month, the era of "twin terminals" in Guangzhou has finally arrived! Now, the time waiting for the flight is no longer boring, just stroll around and experience the art It's fun to blend in with the sense of technology, and you can eat delicious food from all over the world. It's not too fun to shop at various big-name stores. I have decided to stay at Baiyun Airport

2.T2 Terminal! : Combining good looks, artistic sense, and technological sense

I want to especially show off the newly opened T2 terminal of Baiyun Airport at the end of last month. It is really awesome, modeled after Singapore Changi! The design of the airport, the "sky clouds" on top of the departure hall, and the ecological green design all highlight a fresh visual experience. The big-name shops, Cantonese food, etc. behind the check-in area are enough for you to spend a day shopping!

No wonder some netizens commented that checking in now is like going to a shopping mall, and you may miss your flight every minute! 4 airlines have already moved to T2, and the "Landlord" will be on Saturday. , that is, on May 19, we will move there together with Chongqing Airlines, Sichuan Airlines, and Hebei Airlines of China Southern Airlines! If you take the above flights in the future, you can come to Terminal 2 to check in.

China Southern Airlines will also comprehensively upgrade ground services at T2 to implement self-service check-in and self-service baggage check-in. Flying in the future will be more secure and smooth~

I saw a new notice today. During the transition period of T2, until At the end of May, if passengers traveling on China Southern Airlines arrive late and miss their flight or make a wrong transfer due to T1/T2 transfer reasons, they can be refunded as an involuntary change if they meet the conditions! It’s not in vain that I bought your member’s day ticket for so long, this time it’s really awesome~

Of course! Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport can operate all night, and the VIP service has 6 VIP lounges open all day. Members can enjoy services with their VIP cards, while non-members can make temporary purchases on some APPs. Generally speaking, it is relatively safe, but during the New Year and festivals, you still have to be careful of thieves wherever you go.

Under normal circumstances, the airport is open 24 hours a day, and VIP is the same, it is always open! At least, so far, I have never seen an airport that closes or ceases operations at night. I've even seen people setting up camp at the airport with tents. It's more peaceful than sleeping in a hotel, so don't worry and go in advance. The flight at six in the morning is really troublesome, having to leave for the airport in the middle of the night. I have never waited overnight at Baiyun Airport, but I have had the experience of waiting overnight at a foreign airport twice. It feels hard when I think about it, so it is worth having a VIP card or purchasing VIP services.

The first time was at Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Thailand. I had a plane at around six in the morning and took a taxi to the airport in the middle of the night to wait for my flight. I took the wrong route that time. I walked to Don Mueang Airport, struggled a lot, and took the airport employee's vehicle back to Suvarnabhumi. Late at night, I slept directly on the chair. I was afraid of thieves and was afraid of the cold, so I tossed and turned, which was extremely uncomfortable anyway. The second time was at Colombo International Airport in Sri Lanka. Colombo is known as an international airport, but it is too small. The airport is crowded with people and noisy, more like a train station. There is no place to sleep. I had no choice but to sit on a stool and stay up until about five o'clock in the morning to board the plane.

From downtown Guangzhou to Baiyun International Airport, just catch the late subway. It is convenient, punctual, and faster than taking a taxi. Of course, you can also take the airport bus, which has few transfers, is direct and convenient.

The overnight guide at Baiyun Airport can be roughly divided into the following points:

Twenty-four-hour store type

There is an all-weather KFC in the W arrival area, but the store is very It's small, and it closes late at night... But if it's early, you can choose to rest there for a while. It has air conditioning and wifi, which is a good choice.

There is a Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao style restaurant on the floor below the lobby and one floor above the subway entrance. There is a security guard station next to the location. The safety factor is high and the hot water is very close to the toilet

Airport Seats

There are chairs outside the arrivals hall, but it is quite cold, and there are many people in the arrivals hall. There is a chaos of people picking up people and asking questions. The departure hall is not bad compared to the arrival hall, but there is chatter and noise. It is a bit noisy for staying overnight... However, in the early morning, the airport is super quiet and most people are sleeping, so it is possible to stay overnight, but safety is not guaranteed.

Airport Lounge

It’s that kind of capsule hotel, it costs 50 yuan an hour. At the end of the time tunnel on the first floor of the airport, there is a bed where you can sleep. If it is not long before boarding and you are tired, this is an option.

Surrounding hotels

Hotels that are relatively close to the airport and have a good environment will be more expensive. There is an information desk about accommodation in the airport arrival hall, and it seems that you can book a midnight room. This kind of room It's cheaper than the regular price, about 100 to 150 RMB, and it takes 7-15 minutes to walk from the airport.

If you calculate it this way, if you often fly early in the morning, it is very worthwhile to purchase a VIP card or VIP service.

It’s possible, but it’s difficult. I signed up for a group trip to Yunnan last November. The meeting time was 4:30, check-in was around 5:30, and I took the 6:30 flight. It took about an hour to get there by taxi from my house. I didn't want to get up half asleep to go to the airport, so I arrived early at around 11pm.

Find a place to sleep near the tour group gathering point. The lights are too bright, and people arrive in Guangzhou all night, squinting and dozing off while taking care of their luggage. If you are lucky, you can find a row where you can lie down and sleep. Remember to keep your money close to your chest as there are not many security patrols. It’s best if two people go together and take turns sleeping. I didn't sleep at all that day and slept for 2 hours on the plane. On the way to Lugu Lake, I had a high fever...

It’s no problem at all. I’ve done midnight flights at Baiyun Airport (flying internationally at 1am and 4am). There are more people at Baiyun Airport as the night goes by. If you have an early flight, the last subway to the airport is in advance, and there are many overseas routes that also arrive at midnight, so that’s no problem at all. If your flight lands at six o'clock and you can take the subway back, it's basically no problem. If you land at six o'clock and you leave the airport and arrive at the subway station, it's probably already 6:30. If your domestic flight takes off at six o'clock and you don't have checked luggage, you can arrive at the airport at five o'clock. If there is checked luggage, you can arrive at 4:30 or 4:30 in advance. You still have to queue up to check in at 4:45. Internationally, you have to arrive at 4:00 to be safe. You can't be late by 4:30 at the latest. If you don't need to stay at the airport in Guangzhou city, you can choose to book taxis and special cars, Didi Ctrip You can make an appointment. For example: If you stay in Xiaobei and the domestic flight does not check in at 6 o'clock on the second day, you may set up a Xiaobei taxi (private car) at 4:30 or earlier before going to bed 10 hours before departure and place an order at Baiyun Airport. The driver will contact you immediately when you get off the bus and pick you up at the designated location at 4:30. Generally, it takes 30-35 minutes from Xiaobei to Baiyun Airport. (The cost of a taxi is about 90 yuan on highway 15, about 120 yuan for a private car on highway 15, about 110 yuan on Ctrip’s worst taxi, and about 15 yuan 90 on ordinary Didi taxis)

Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport was officially put into use this year There is also a timed hotel/hotel in the T2 terminal similar to the traditional timed lounge at the subway entrance on the first floor of the T1 terminal, which is an upgraded version of the experience.

1. Let’s start with the Yunwowo Leisure Service Center in the domestic departure restricted area of ??Terminal 2. It is located in the commercial area on the second floor, just opposite the B264 boarding gate. There are two types of rooms to choose from: single rooms and double rooms. Each independent rest room is equipped with a sofa bed and a simple shower room with a sense of privacy, which can be used for passengers who have night flights, early flights or long layovers. It is very convenient. convenient.

2. Let’s focus on the Aerotransit Hotel in Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, which is located in the international departure restricted area of ??Terminal 2. It started trial operation in September this year and is managed by Plaza Premium Group, one of the world's leading high-end airport service and management organizations. It is currently the first in China.

After passing the security check and entering the international departure restricted area, you will first see the dazzling duty-free shops on both sides. Follow the sign "Sleep Lounge" and turn right. Take the escalator opposite Dicos Fried Chicken and you will reach the store on the fourth floor. Transfer to the hotel during the flight.

The first thing that catches the eye is the black and white style film wallpaper on the outside of the hotel. It is the iconic Guangzhou building Xiaomanyao and the Xiguan House that best represents the characteristics of Guangfu. When I walked to the front desk of the hotel, I was attracted by the capital letter A and the well-proportioned caramel-colored light bulbs of different sizes. The receptionist was polite and made me feel at home. Further inside, there is the reading lounge, which is also the hotel's 24-hour restaurant. There are various literary and artistic books, magazines and exquisite handicrafts placed on the bookcases. It can be seen that the store manager has put a lot of thought into the decoration and matching. Read a good book, sip a cup of fragrant coffee, and taste a delicious simple meal, as if the boring time of waiting for a flight is passing by in this lazy and leisurely atmosphere.

The hotel *** has 57 rooms, including single rooms with private shower rooms, single upgraded rooms with private shower rooms, double upgraded double rooms and double upgraded double rooms. The bed rooms provide a variety of choices to meet the needs of different travelers. The room is equipped with five-star hotel quality bedding and comfortable shower facilities, as well as bottled water, tea bags, coffee bags, towels, slippers, hair dryers, high-definition LCD TVs and high-speed wireless Internet.

Different from traditional hotels, this hotel provides flexible time booking mode. Passengers can choose the check-in period according to their actual needs, starting from 3 hours (minimum consumption is 380 yuan for 3 hours according to different room types, please consult for details) Reservation 020-36066330).

Say goodbye to the trouble of being unable to sleep on a cold chair at the airport due to long layovers. Now you can enjoy a comfortable sleep, take a hot bath, and taste warm and delicious meals. This is not a kind of happiness during the journey.

Hello, it’s ok, I just came here overnight in December. Can be luxurious and frugal. It's a luxurious hourly hotel, just to the left after security check at Airport South Station. The place to save money is the overnight passenger rest area on the second floor of the airport (above the subway station). I didn’t notice that any of the VIP rooms were open, but I noticed at China Southern Airlines that they were closed in the middle of the night. In December, I only slept in the overnight passenger rest area. I don’t know the other details, so I will only briefly introduce this rest area: In fact, there are many flights at the airport, so there are many people in the airport in the middle of the night. There are people sitting and walking everywhere. Safe. However, the chairs in other areas have handles in the middle, so you can only sit and rest. Most of the chairs in this rest area have their handles removed, so visitors can lie down and sleep (except for the first row of the rest area, which still has handles). There are two types of chairs: three-seater and four-seater. If you are taller, go for a four-seater. I arrived at 10:30 and it was already half full. By 11 o'clock it was full. After one o'clock or two o'clock, people from the early shift went to register, and the seats became available again. The nearest toilet in the rest area is a three-minute walk away. The drinking water machine is right in front of the rest area, with warm and hot water available (I ate two cup noodles:-D). There is a 24-hour restaurant in front of the rest area, which sells roast chicken, goose, rice, porridge and noodles, etc. It looks quite expensive based on the price tag.

Baiyun Airport is accessible 24 hours a day. There is a rest area for overnight passengers on the first floor. The disadvantage is that it is a bit noisy due to the large number of people. It is recommended that you go to the second floor (check-in) where there are fewer people and it is quieter. If you spend some time There is an accommodation next to the subway entrance (it seems to be called Time Hotel). You can choose hourly rates and there is a wake-up service

You can stay all night

I used to take the 9-yuan bus. I had a six o'clock flight and rushed over at four o'clock, but it was still crowded.

I feel that the airport is no different from a train station. In places with many people, paying attention to personal and property safety is the most important thing.
