Flights to Foshan
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Foshan is served by 3 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN), 44 km (27 mi) from the centre, whose 12,467-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (SZX, 81 km), Foshan Shadi Airport (FUO, 9 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport | CAN | 44 km (27 mi) | 12,467 ft | 50 ft |
| Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport | SZX | 81 km (50 mi) | 12,467 ft | 13 ft |
| Foshan Shadi Airport (regional) | FUO | 9 km (6 mi) | 9,186 ft | 6 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,467 ft, CAN can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 50 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
