Nanjing Lukou International Airport NKGZSNJ

Nanjing Lukou International Airport (NKG) is the main airport for Nanjing and one of the more important trunk airports in East China. It is not a single-alliance mega-hub in the way Shanghai Pudong or Beijing Capital can be, but it is a meaningful base/focus operation for China Eastern, Shenzhen Airlines and Juneyao Air, with China Southern also present and China Postal Airlines important on the cargo side. For travelers, think of NKG as a strong domestic and regional international airport: good for Jiangsu/Yangtze River Delta access, mainland China connections, and selected international, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan services, rather than a global long-haul transfer hub.

Timezone: Asia/Shanghai
