Yes, Guangzhou Baiyun (CAN) has designated outdoor smoking areas near the main entrances of both T1 and T2 on the departures and arrivals levels. Indoor smoking has been banned since 2016, so the curbside zones outside each terminal are your only option. T2 also has additional spots near the ground transportation center.
是的,广州白云国际机场(CAN)在T1和T2主入口的出发层和到达层均设有指定户外吸烟区。室内吸烟自2016年起全面禁止,航站楼外路边吸烟区是唯一选择。T2地面交通中心附近还有额外吸烟点。
Guangzhou Baiyun sits at the heart of the Pearl River Delta, southern China’s manufacturing engine. If you have ever attended a Canton Fair or transited on a China Southern connection, you know CAN — busy, subtropical, always warm. The humidity hits the moment you step outside, which is exactly where you need to go for a cigarette.
广州白云机场位于珠江三角洲核心地带——中国南方的制造业引擎。参加过广交会或乘南航中转的旅客都熟悉CAN:繁忙、亚热带、终年炎热。一出门湿热扑面而来,而户外正是吸烟的唯一去处。
Terminal 1 Smoking Areas
T1 is the older terminal, handling a mix of domestic and international flights. It is the more straightforward terminal to navigate. Outdoor smoking spots sit along the curbside at the upper departures entrance and outside the arrivals doors near the taxi pickup. Most gates are a 5-10 minute walk from the exit — the easiest terminal at CAN for a quick smoke.
1号航站楼吸烟区 — T1是较旧航站楼,服务国内和部分国际航班,动线相对清晰。户外吸烟点位于上层出发入口外路边及到达层出租车上客区附近。大多数登机口距出口5-10分钟——是CAN最方便快速吸烟的航站楼。
Terminal 2 Smoking Areas
T2 opened in April 2018 and is a different beast — massive, modern, designed to handle China Southern’s hub operations. Outdoor smoking zones sit at the T2 departures entrance, near the ground transportation center, and outside arrivals. From a far-end gate, factor in 40-50 minutes for the round trip including security re-screening.
2号航站楼吸烟区 — T2于2018年4月启用,完全不同——规模巨大、现代,为南航枢纽运营设计。户外吸烟区位于T2出发入口、地面交通中心附近及到达层外。从远端登机口出发,加上安检复检,往返约需40-50分钟。
Before Security / Landside
The most stress-free smoke at CAN is before you enter either terminal. Both have clearly marked outdoor zones near the main entrances. Arriving by Metro Line 3 (Baiyun Airport North or South stations), take a few minutes outside before heading up. After landing, the arrivals exits dump you directly into the Guangzhou heat with ashtrays within a short walk.
安检前 / 公共区 — 在CAN最省心的吸烟时机是进入航站楼前。T1和T2主入口附近均设有清晰标识的户外吸烟区。乘地铁3号线抵达(机场北或机场南站),进出发层前先到外面抽支烟。抵达后,到达出口直接通向广州的暑气,步行很短即到烟灰缸。
- 亚热带高温。 5-10月气温常超30°C且湿度大,7-8月在外面几分钟就大汗淋漓。11月-2月舒适得多。
- T2远端登机口对吸烟旅客最不友好——如登机口在指廊末端,提前值机并在过安检前抽完烟。
- T1和T2安检后无连接。 航站楼间转换需乘摆渡车。如打算在转机时吸烟,请预留额外时间。
- 香烟品牌。 中华、玉溪、南京在航站楼便利店均有售,标准零售价。市区购买更便宜。
- 下午是安检高峰。 清晨和深夜航班排队较短——据此安排吸烟时间。
