What TSN to HAK looks like
The TSN to HAK sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Tianjin TSN to Haikou HAK is a medium haul sector of 2,233 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 2,233 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 3h 21m.
Tianjin TSN is a mid sized airport in the network held here, 79 scheduled destinations and 183.7 departures a day. Haikou HAK has 105 destinations and 223.6 departures a day.
Tianjin and Haikou keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 21 of them join TSN to HAK.
| Connecting at | TSN to hub, flights a day | Hub to HAK, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wuhan WUH | 5.86 | 7.34 | 2,234 | 5h 06m |
| Changsha CSX | 5.86 | 10.86 | 2,234 | 5h 07m |
| Nanning NNG | 2.29 | 5.34 | 2,412 | 5h 10m |
| Guangzhou CAN | 13.43 | 19.43 | 2,275 | 5h 15m |
| Xiamen XMN | 4.57 | 2.86 | 2,564 | 5h 16m |
| Shenzhen SZX | 7 | 15.29 | 2,322 | 5h 19m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at TSN in the afternoon actually flies on.
21 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Wuhan WUH, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 5.9 times a day.
Through WUH the routing covers 2,234 km against the 2,233 km nonstop track and takes about 5h 06m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 75 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 45m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Changsha CSX at 5h 07m and Nanning NNG at 5h 10m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Tianjin, Beijing PKX is 91 km away by great circle and carries 159 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Haikou, Sanya SYX is 212 km away by great circle and carries 76 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for TSN to HAK in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
