Default transit in 11 hours in Guangzhou before connecting my next flight.

First of all, please don't post in html, and many of us can't read or reply.

You are talking about the new airport? I suppose very few of us have flown
into that one, as it just opened. I understand that it is pretty far from
the city. But with 11 hours I think you can easily go into the city with
plenty of time, assuming you don't have visa issues.

Nowadays airport don't have luggage storage anymore. I don't know about
this new airport. Can you check your luggage through and just have hand
carried bags?

If you are passing through there soon, change currency before you get
there - newspaper reports than banks and currency exchanges not open yet.

Not sure, but don't you need a multiple entry visa if you leave the airport?
You must go through immigration and then back in immigration to
get back to your next flight. If you just passing through you don't need to
go through immigration. So it does not count towards your visa.
Just food for thought.


Regards,
Jim
