This replaced the previous airport shuttle bus as the default transit option for most travelers. Line 14 also connects to Xi'an central via transfers at Xi'an North.Airport shuttle buses still serve the city centre and Bell Tower area (¥30, 50–70 min). Taxis from Xi'an Zhonglou (Bell Tower area) cost ¥80–120 and take 40–60 minutes on the G30 expressway. DiDi is widely used. The airport is 47 km northwest of the city centre.

Chengdu sits in the Sichuan Basin with a humid subtropical climate. Summers (June-September) hit 22-29 degrees C with heavy monsoon rain. Half the annual 1000mm of rainfall lands in these four months, arriving as afternoon thunderstorms. Winters (December-February) average 3-8 degrees C and stay overcast. Frost is rare but the persistent cloud cover and dampness make it feel colder than the numbers suggest.
