Metro Line 3 North Extension runs directly to T1 and T2 from Tianhe and the city centre (30–40 min from Guangzhou East station, ¥8–10).

Humid subtropical climate. Chongqing is one of China's "Three Furnaces" for summer heat. Summers are hot and humid (30–38°C, June–September) with frequent rainstorms and thunderstorms that cause delays. The city sits at a river confluence and fog is endemic. Winter and early spring mornings often produce dense fog (2–12°C) that delays or diverts departures.

Pollution combined with fog can produce severe visibility reductions in winter. Pack layers for the dramatic temperature drops that occur with elevation changes in the surrounding mountains.
