Guangzhou/Baiyun & Shenzhen/Bao’an – Wednesday 2nd November 2016 (Grant Robinson)

Hi all,
Ben and I got up very early hours of the morning and did a two hour stint I think between 02:00 through to 04:00. This was to catch a lot of the freight stuff and the influx of 9 Air arrivals. Also to catch the only Scoot Boeing 787 that would be seen on the trip.

With breakfast done and nice weather outside again, we spotted from our rooms until we left around 2pm to go to the Civil Aviation College. Many more over the tops were seen again today……

I asked the hotel reception to organise a local taxi for us which upon checking-out would take us to the Civil Aviation College located at the Northern end of the airport and then back to the airport to find a coach to Shenzhen.

Coordinates for the public road that runs alongside the aircraft in use at the Civil Aviation College are Latitude 23°25’8.64″N, Longitude 113°18’31.66″E. Just walk and down the fence to see the inmates with ease.We did try to get in but the security guy despite making a phone call on our
behalf, said no.

The planning for this trip had gone well so far but I messed up with going for the coach transfer option to Shenzhen. The coach services to different destinations depart from gates A4 or B5 outside the respective terminals. It was just 100 CNY (£12) for the one way fare and you have to get the ticket before you board the coach. The system they had for organising which coach went to where was easy to understand, but what was not clear was what stops the service carried out along the route.

We were led to believe it was stopping close to Shenzhen airport or certainly close by. Anyhow after a smooth motorway journey South, I saw from Google Maps on my phone that at the first stop, we were reasonably close (a few miles) to the airport region but I thought that the coach would go closer going on the direction we were headed and to be fair this stop did seem to be in the middle of nowhere with no obvious link to the airport apart from walking or taxi and no taxis were in sight.

So we opted to stay on and see where it went next. To our horror it did a u-turn and headed back to the motorway and headed further South towards Shenzhen city proper and we ended up a very long distance away from the airport. The second and last stop was the Shenzhen bus/coach station. A taxi ride sorted this out but it would have been much easier and quicker to have either asked Southern Airlines Pearl Hotel to transfer us by car as we did from Tianjin to Beijing or taken up the offer of the Sunway Hotel to come and collect us from Guangzhou. We saved on money but lost a bit of spotting time getting to Sorry guys and I hope you’ve forgiven me!

Anyhow we had tea in the Liverpool FC themed bar – Garry loved this, as this is his beloved home town club (sorry in advance to Everton fans). Be warned that breakfast and tea is very basic here, but it was fine by my standards which admittedly are quite low.

Hopefully I made up for the lost spotting time by receiving a package upon checking in to this hotel. This package contained the tickets we needed to get in to the Airshow China two day later 

I will explain the trauma involved in getting these bloody things later on in the Zhuhai post and when you read it, you will realise my happiness……
