"Xiamen by Air" Top 5 Page for this destination Xiamen Transportation Tip by SLLiew

Probably the easiest way to Xiamen is by air. I flew into and out of the city three times from Guangzhou, Shenzen and Shanghai.

The airport is officially called "Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport". Airport code: XMN. It is the homebase for Xiamen Airlines.

There are road and rail connections but Xiamen is surrounded by mountains. Probably the sea was the best access in the old days when it was called "Amoy" and was the port that many Chinese from Fujian emigrated to Southeast Asia.

The beautiful Xiamen international airport is located by the sea in northeast of Xiamen island.

Right near the airport are many multi-national corporation factories like Dell, Canon. The airport is about 10km from downtown.
