Suzhou's regional airport serving eastern China's economic hub.

Location
Suzhou, China
Suzhou Guangfu Airport (IATA: SZV, ICAO: ZSSZ) is a small regional airport located in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, China. It primarily serves general aviation and limited commercial operations, situated in a city better known as a major manufacturing and tourism center near Shanghai. The airport operates on a relatively modest scale compared to nearby major hubs such as Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, which handle the bulk of air travel demand for the greater Suzhou region. Many Suzhou residents and visitors rely on those Shanghai airports for long-haul and high-frequency domestic connections. Due to its proximity to Shanghai's major airports, Suzhou Guangfu has seen limited scheduled commercial passenger service, and its role has evolved more toward general aviation, charter, and military use over time.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between Suzhou city center and the airport is available via road, though most travelers opt for rail or road connections to Shanghai's major airports for commercial flights.
