Situated 13 kilometers (about 8.1 miles) east of Dunhuang City is Dunhuang Airport (DNH), a small airport that offers only a domestic service. Tourists can fly to Dunhuang from Lanzhou, Xian, Beijing, Jiayuguan, Urumqi, etc. In order to offer more convenience for tourists, charter-flights have been instated including Dunhuang-Beijing, Dunhuang-Guangzhou, Dunhuang-Nanjing, Dunhuang-Urumqi, Dunhuang and Yinchuan. In the peak season, the airport offers many more charter-flights than in the off-season. Arriving at the airport, it is convenient to take a taxi to access downtown Dunhuang. If you ask other people to share a taxi with you, it will cost you less than if you take it by yourself.
Important notice: taxis outside the airport will cost less than those inside.
