Small airport but functioned perfectly. Arrived from Hong Kong to small queue's at Immigration, efficient
baggage carousels and even a long queue for taxis was marshalled and moved quickly. On departure on an
internal Chinese flight, check-in was reasonably efficient and security straightforward.

Used this airport for an internal flight. It was clean & efficient with
loads of facilities, shops, cafes, restaurants etc. Baggage trolleys are
free as in all airports in China. In short a no fuss modern airport
experience.

It looks like a small size HKG Airport. Quite modern, bright and very
clean indeed, but an airy feeling as there isn't many passengers around
at night. Immigration and baggage collection is swift, and I found
myself at the taxi stand very soon. Departure wise, the luggage needs to
pass thru an x-ray machine before check in at counter, though I don't
fancy that experience as the officer asked me to open for full
inspection. Check-in was fairly quick, but there comes another
inconvenience. After my check-in luggage was pushed into the counter, it
passes thru yet another x-ray, and I was told to go inside the counter
to open up again for almost a full-scale check. And the officer could
tell me that they are from different dept compared to the earlier
checks. How troublesome was that! They could simply set up a single
checkpoint for all check-in luggage like many major international
airports. The immigration staff doesn't look friendly at all. Duty free
item is limited, and shopkeepers selling souvenirs and local products
greeting and eagerly following behind you whenever you are browsing
around. I'm surprised to see automatic rubbish bin which the lid would
closed by itself. Very clear announcement, and many seats and TVs around
the waiting area. Clean toilet with live fishes inside a mini tank at
wash basin.

This is a fairly pleasant and spotless, if underused airport. Waiting
areas are pleasantly clean and climate control was working perfectly
fine. Baggage check is not unfriendly with efficient officers taking
less than 5 minutes for my carry-on and large suitcase. An oddity - the
check-in, (which was efficient taking into consideration the line of
about 70) was placed after the baggage check. The areas are spotlessly
furnished with marble floors and a mural about the developing aviation
industry. Transit facilities were just about adequate, with no airport
hotel, but about 5-10 shops and well-maintained waiting areas.
Immigration/passport check was swift and well-carried-out. Arrival
facilities were also top-notch - duty-free, efficient staff, but no
restaurant, disappointment to food-lovers like me. Chatted with arrivals
officer who complained good-naturedly about my mandarin writing - what
do you get when you are on a shaking plane? another oddity - there is a
long tunnel straddling all gates for staff. Overall, a very pleasant but
underused airport - Xiamen simply has not that much tourist potential.
Advertise Xiamen as the gateway to Wuyi Shan! There is no transit hotel.

A nice little Chinese airport. That means it it (still) oversized, the connections by public
transport are (not yet) optimal. The crew are sufficient, though not very friendly. On the up side,
it has a stunning approach coming from the south, landing almost into the surrounding buildings.
This is the type of landing that Hong Kong had before!
