Airport Transportation in Beijing

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Beijing Capital International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Our airport transportation in Beijing runs from both PEK terminals to hotels around the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, the Wangfujing and Sanlitun districts, Beijing South Railway Station and the Great Wall sections north of the city, such as Mutianyu.

Beijing Airport Transfers

Beijing airport transfers start in the public arrivals hall of Terminal 2 or Terminal 3, where your driver waits after the customs exit. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your actual landing time, and the price is fixed per vehicle before you fly.

Choose a sedan for two, an SUV or minivan for a family, or a minibus or coach for a group, and ride door to door to your hotel, apartment, office or railway station. Every Beijing airport transfer goes straight to the address on your booking.

Beijing Airport Shuttle

Our Beijing airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, leaving as soon as you are through arrivals at Terminal 2 or Terminal 3. There is room for suitcases and bulky bags, which suits families, business teams and groups heading to central Beijing or the Great Wall.

Landing at Beijing Airport

Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) is in Shunyi District, northeast of downtown Beijing, and is the main hub of Air China. Passenger flights use Terminal 2 and Terminal 3; the former Terminal 1 building now works as a satellite wing of Terminal 2, and a free shuttle bus and the Airport Express link the two terminals.

At Terminal 3, international flights use concourse T3E, linked to the main building by an automated train. After passport control, collect your bags in the baggage hall and pass through customs into the arrivals hall, where pre-booked drivers wait.

Beijing runs on China Standard Time (UTC+8) all year, with no daylight saving time.

Beijing Airport Transportation FAQs

Where will my driver meet me at Beijing Capital Airport?

Your driver waits in the public arrivals hall of Terminal 2 or Terminal 3, just after the customs exit. Check your arrival terminal before you land and give it when you book, since the two buildings are several minutes apart by shuttle.

How far is Beijing Capital Airport from downtown Beijing?

The airport is about 32 km northeast of downtown Beijing, in Shunyi District. By road, central areas such as Wangfujing or the Forbidden City usually take about 45 to 90 minutes, depending on traffic.

Is Beijing Capital the same airport as Beijing Daxing?

No. Beijing Capital (PEK) is northeast of the city, while Beijing Daxing (PKX) is a separate, newer airport far to the south, and airlines are split between them. Check the three-letter code on your ticket and book the transfer from that airport.

Which terminal will I arrive at?

Air China and most Star Alliance and Oneworld airlines, such as United, Singapore Airlines, ANA and Cathay Pacific, use Terminal 3. Hainan Airlines and most SkyTeam airlines use Terminal 2. Assignments can change, so confirm the terminal on your ticket or airline app.

Can you take me to hotels near the Forbidden City and Wangfujing?

Yes. Enter your hotel's address when you book and your driver takes you door to door, whether you are staying near the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, in Wangfujing or in Sanlitun.

Can I go straight from the airport to the Great Wall?

The most visited Great Wall sections, such as Mutianyu, lie north of the city, and the airport's northeast location puts them within reach by road without crossing central Beijing. Enter Mutianyu or your hotel near the wall as the drop-off to see if a transfer is offered.

Can you take me to Beijing South Railway Station?

Yes. Enter Beijing South Railway Station as your drop-off. It is the terminus for high-speed trains to Shanghai and Tianjin, so give your train time when you book and allow a margin for traffic.

Can you drop me at an apartment or office instead of a hotel?

Yes. Your transfer goes to the address on your booking, whether that is a serviced apartment, a family home, an office or a conference venue in Beijing.

What if I land late at night?

Your pickup follows the actual landing time of the flight on your reservation, so a late arrival is covered. You also skip the official taxi queue, which can take 30 to 60 minutes after midnight.

Should I accept a ride from people inside the terminal?

No. Ignore people in the arrivals hall who offer rides. Go only with the driver named in your confirmation, who waits in the arrivals hall after the customs exit.

What happens if my flight is delayed or diverted?

We monitor the flight on your reservation, so a delay moves your pickup with it. If your flight number, date or arrival airport changes, for example to Beijing Daxing, update it in Manage your booking so the booking can be updated.

Can I book my ride back to Beijing Capital Airport?

Yes. Book a departure from your hotel or address to PEK and give your departure terminal, Terminal 2 or Terminal 3, so your driver drops you at the right building.

Do I need an arrival card to enter China at Beijing?

Most foreign travelers complete China's arrival card, which can be filled in online through the NIA 12367 app, the immigration website or a WeChat or Alipay mini program. Visa-free stays of up to 30 days apply to listed nationalities through 31 December 2026.

Do children pay differently than adults?
