When should I check in at Guangzhou for my departing flight?

How long in advance you are able to check in at Guangzhou and when check-in closes tends to vary depending on the airline you are flying with so always make sure to check directly on their website. The general guidance is to arrive at Guangzhou at least two hours before scheduled departure for a shorthaul flight and three hours before departure for a longhaul flight. If you have already checked in online it is recommended to still allow plenty of time for dropping off bags, collecting boarding passes where required and getting to your gate.
