Regional jets are small and uncomfortable. When flying in or out of South Bend airport, that's usually what I'm on. It's the price one pays for the great convenience of using a small airport (cheap parking, no lines). The CRJ900 has engines attached to the fuselage near the rear of the plane. So, very loud in the back of the plane, and I happened to have the far back corner that also had no window. Oh well, a short flight and pleasant neighbor and cheerful attendant.

Beijing climate

Beijing has a monsoon-influenced climate. The summers are hot and humid and the winters are cold and dry.

Getting around Beijing

It’s not necessary to rent a car in Beijing (foreigners are allowed to rent cars now) as taxis are very cheap and the public transport system is excellent. The subway is fast, clean, punctual and cheap. The bus network is comprehensive and enormous. There are about 500 routes, but numbers 1-199 should be sufficient for getting around the city centre. 

What is good to know if travelling to Beijing?

  • Local Beijingers don’t bother with the Panjiayuan Dirt Market, preferring instead to go to the Baoguosi Flea Market in Xuanwu District. The prices for antiques and Cultural Revolution items are reasonable. 
  • Tipping is not expected in Beijing. 
  • You can’t visit Beijing and not go to see the Great Wall. The Badaling sections are where most of the other tourists will go. If you go on an organised tour to Badaling, a visit to the Ming Tombs (a World Heritage Site) is often included. However, if you can spare the time and you have the money, go to Mutianyu. It’s about 60km northeast of Beijing. This section of the Wall is largely intact and it’s a wonderful place to hike and bike. Alternatively, there are two cable cars that will carry you to the top of Mutianyu Great Wall. 
  • Beijing has some wonderful, serene parks including Yuetan Park (west Beijing). Visit in the evening and breathe in the heavily scented air. That’ll be from the pomegranate, phoenix and osmanthus trees. 
  • Ritan is site of the Temple of the Sun. The altar was used for ritual sacrifices… hundreds of years ago. 
  • A foot massage in Beijing can cost a fraction of what it does at home. Our favourite is at the Bodhi Therapeutic Retreat, opposite the Workers’ Stadium (north gate). The traditional foot massage takes 90 minutes. Sheer bliss.

  • When is the best time to fly to Beijing?

    Peak Season: June to August is peak season, when most travellers arrive on cheap flights to Beijing. Chinese New Year (end of January/February), Labour Day (May 1) and National Day (October 1) are also very busy times, when most of China, it seems, is on the move and flights and accommodation are heavily booked.  Off Season:  Winter is low season.  Shoulder Season:  Spring and autumn are shoulder season times when there are fewer tourists and lower rates. September and October are known as the “Golden Autumn” months.

  • Can I find cheaper flights to Beijing if I am willing to have stopovers?

    Yes, flights with stopovers are often cheaper than direct flights. Keep an eye out for flight deals to Beijing on Cheapflights that require 1 or 2 stops for potential cost savings.

  • What is the best airline to fly to Beijing?

    Based on reviews from Cheapflights users, Hainan Airlines is rated the highest out of the airlines that fly to Beijing.

  • What is the cheapest airport to fly to in Beijing?

    Beijing Daxing Intl is currently the cheapest airport to fly to in Beijing. One-way flights to Beijing Daxing Intl typically cost $123, while return flights cost around $664.

  • How much is a return flight to Beijing?

    A return flight to Beijing will typically cost around $1,386, however they can be found for as little as $379.

  • Where does the fastest flight to Beijing depart from?

    For those looking to save time traveling to Beijing, Auckland Intl offers the quickest one-way flight (16 hours 45 minutes).

  • Does Beijing Capital have rental cars?

    Yes. Those touching down at Beijing Capital can take advantage of the car hire services offered upon their arrival.
