I'm not sure about that. The last train departs at 22:02 and it takes about 1 hour from the airport to railway station. If you cannot catch the train and the DIDI is not available, you can stay overnight near the railway station.

As I know, there is no direct shuttle bus that can take you to the west railway station. Upon landing, take shuttle bus line 1 and get off at Nanguan Station. Then transfer to metro line 2 to the destination.

There is only one direct bus from Longjia Airport to Beidahu and the bus departs at 16:00. The duration is about 2 hours and the ticket fare is CNY80 per person. But you need to book the ticket in advance.

If you cannot catch the direct bus to Beidahu, the second way is recommended to you. You can take the bullet train at Longjia Airport to Jilin Railway Station. There are about 17 trains from the airport to Jilin, departing from about 07:20 to 20:40. The interval is about 15-30 minutes. The train ticket fare is CNY31.5 per person and the duration is about 40/ 50 minutes. Then take the bus at Jilin Railway Station to Beidahu. The bus schedule is 07:30, 08:00 and 17:00. The duration is about 1.5 hours and the ticket fare is CNY20 per person.

Answered by Matthew | Nov. 14, 2018 18:11

It is about one hour from the airport to the train station. Yes, I found there is Longjia train station, about 15-minutes walk from the airport. You can take the train at this station to Jilin, which is more convenient.
