Chengdu Tianfu International Airport Review

01. Landing time: Arrive at the airport at 1:50 AM. Walk from the airport gate, following the Arrivals sign. It takes about 10 minutes to reach immigration. There aren't many people at this time, so it's a comfortable walk. I arrived at immigration at 2:00 AM. 02. Immigration: The line wasn't long and there weren't many people. It's recommended to fill out the immigration form beforehand on the plane or bring your own pen. During this time, there are officers available to assist you with filling out the form for a faster process. 03. Immigration: Waited in line for about 10 minutes. The officer asked 2-3 questions: Who are you with, how many days you'll be staying, and where you've been. 04. Passed through immigration and waited for your baggage claim around 2:30 AM. 05. Exit the airport. Pass the "Welcome to Chengdu" sign and follow the "Airport Bus" sign to catch the bus into the city. It's about a 10-minute walk. The bus stop is outside the building. ✈️Recommendations and Personal Opinions The airport is quite close. It's a fairly short walk from the landing point to immigration. I recommend walking quickly and avoiding stops. It's easy to walk and won't get lost. You can follow the signs or people, and there's only one route to the checkpoint. ✈️ Immigration officers take a long time to check in and ask a lot of questions. It's recommended to prepare yourself for a quick and easy trip. Bring your return flight, hotel, and travel plans. ✈️ Restrooms are readily available from the moment you exit the plane. They're clean and new. We recommend using them in the airport before reaching the bus stop outside the terminal. ✈️ Restaurants and shops: If you're arriving on a late flight, there aren't many open. We recommend bringing snacks from Thailand, like bread or a snack, to take with you on the plane. ✈️ There are shops selling SIM cards and money changers that seem to be open. ✈️ The overall journey from the airport takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour. If you have other plans, allow plenty of time. #GetDiscountsWithoutRisk
