Inside the terminal, passengers will find a modest selection of fast food outlets, noodle bars, and convenience shops catering to domestic travellers.

- Download DiDi before travelling as English-language taxi communication can be challenging at this regional airport.
- Arrive at least 90 minutes before domestic flights as security queues can build during peak morning hours.
- Currency exchange and ATM facilities are available inside the terminal but options are limited — carry sufficient RMB cash.
