HGH Hangzhou

How deep the HGH board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from HGH. This reads the same 117 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 60of the 117 destinations are flown by one airline
• 38destinations run less than once a day
• 33destinations have four or more departures a day
• 35%of the destinations name Loong Air, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at HGH

50 airlines appear on the HGH board and they do not hold it evenly. Loong Air is on 41 of the 117 destinations, 35 per cent of them, and on 12 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 288.4 of the 460.5 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Xiamen Airlines on 35 destinations. 27 of the 50 airlines at HGH appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

That is a middling concentration at HGH: one airline on 35 per cent of the destinations and the other 65 per cent spread across 49 airlines. A cancellation inside the Loong Air network is often survivable inside the same booking, but on the 76 destinations Loong Air does not touch, a rebooking means moving to a carrier the desk has to check for a through fare first.

How much of the HGH board is daily

Of the 117 destinations, 79 are flown at least once a day and 38 are not, 3 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the HGH board is flown about once a day.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: HGH to Melbourne (MEL) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 119.9 of the 460.5 departures a day, 26 per cent of the whole board. The other 112 destinations are spread widely enough that a courier who misses the first departure at HGH usually has somewhere else to look on the same board.

The ten destinations out of HGH where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 25 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from HGH

The desk holds the return direction for 44 of the 117 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On one of them the return into HGH runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gap is Moscow (SVO) at 0.43 out a day against 0.14 back.

It runs the other way as well: Beijing (PEK) files 23.3 a day back into HGH against 8.1 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at HGH

HGH keeps Asia/Shanghai time, four hours ahead of Dubai all year.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 13:00 at HGH, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for five hours. A customs question raised in the last four hours of the Dubai afternoon reaches nobody at HGH until the next morning, which is the practical limit on a same day instruction here.

The night at HGH

1 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Tokyo (NRT) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from HGH that lands inside it leaves around 19:00, on a modelled block of 3h 00m. Those one departure times out of HGH are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where HGH turns up on the rest of this site

HGH carries two other pages on this site as well: the China country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport and the HGH transit page for the connecting case, where a courier changes aircraft here rather than starting or finishing.

The site publishes 29 airport pair pages that start or end at HGH, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Hangzhou to Guangzhou (CAN), Hangzhou to Shenzhen (SZX) and Hangzhou to Kunming (KMG).

One courier posting names HGH as the airport a courier here flies from: Hangzhou.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with HGH already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 117 destinations above.
