Liuzhou's gateway airport serving southern Guangxi province.

Location
Liuzhou, China
Liuzhou Bailian Airport (IATA: LZH, ICAO: ZGZH) is a civil-military joint-use airport located in Liuzhou, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. It serves as the primary commercial air gateway for Liuzhou, an important industrial city in the region known for its automobile manufacturing and scenic karst landscape. The airport operates alongside a military air base component, a common arrangement for many Chinese regional airports. It handles domestic routes connecting Liuzhou to major Chinese cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and other regional hubs. The airport has historically been capacity-constrained, and there have been long-standing plans to develop a new, larger airport to better serve the growing city. Liuzhou is the second-largest city in Guangxi by population, and Bailian Airport plays a key role in its connectivity. The city has been investing in transportation infrastructure, including high-speed rail, which competes with short-haul air travel to certain destinations.

Visitors are advised to dine in the city centre before departing, as airport food options are basic.

Traveller Tips
  • Arrive at least 90 minutes before departure as security queues can be unpredictable.
  • Download DiDi before arriving — street taxis may not always be readily available at off-peak hours.

  • Check flight status in advance, as this airport can experience weather-related delays common to the Guangxi region.
