Chengdu Huaizhou Airport (IATA: HZU) is a general aviation airport in Jintang County, northeast of Chengdu, Sichuan. Opened in the early 2020s as part of Chengdu's general aviation network, it supports flight training, emergency rescue, sightseeing, and short-haul operations rather than major commercial airline service. Its location in the Huaizhou New City development area makes it a growing hub for regional aviation activity.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors know that nearby services are sparse, so download offline maps and arrange your return ride before landing; the airport's small size means no long queues, but late-night transport can be hard to find.
🚖 Getting There
By car or ride-hailing from central Chengdu, take the G42 Hurong Expressway toward Jintang/Huaizhou; the trip usually takes 1–1.5 hours. Public transport is limited: take a long-distance bus from Chengdu to Jintang County, then a local taxi to the airport. Confirm access and opening hours in advance, as general aviation airports may restrict entry without a flight or appointment.
