Prepare your Hangzhou journey brief
- Arrival: If your flight uses Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport (HGH) or Jiaxing Nanhu Airport (JNH), give the airport on your ticket, flight number and arrival date. Add the full Hangzhou hotel or venue address; these airport references do not establish a road route or a collection point.
- Check the complete route between stops: The geographic references put Shanghai (about 161 km) and Nanjing (about 237 km) from Hangzhou in a straight line. Use those destination guides to collect the actual entrances and required arrival times. Road distance, access and any non-road connection need checking against the complete itinerary, rather than these map measurements.
- Group and return: Include passengers, luggage and mobility needs. Put any return date, pickup time and departure flight or train in the message field.
Hangzhou South is south of the Qiantang River
The municipal guide identifies Hangzhou South Railway Station in Xiaoshan, south of the Qiantang River, with east and west squares. For a rail-arrival group, distinguish South from Hangzhou East and the central Hangzhou station, and agree an exit and vehicle boarding point. Provide the hotel district and the actual entrance for any West Lake or business visit. A station name and an attraction’s general map point do not define the final walking distance or a place where a coach may wait.
For a visit continuing to Shaoxing, make the onward destination and return plan explicit. Shaoxing transport planning helps identify the next stage. Include its actual address, luggage and return requirement.
Use the China transport guide for a wider itinerary, or include your flight and final address in an airport group-transfer enquiry.

Your Hangzhou transport questions
What extra detail does a Hangzhou South collection need?
Give the full station name, train number and agreed exit or square. Hangzhou South is in Xiaoshan, south of the Qiantang River, so it should not be substituted for a Hangzhou East pickup.
What is the distance between HGH and Hangzhou?
The airport and destination map references are approximately 26 km apart in a straight line. A road journey can differ substantially. Provide the actual address in Hangzhou; the map distance is not a promise of transfer time or fare.
Where will our group meet the vehicle at HGH?
The meeting arrangement for Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport (HGH) must be confirmed with the booking. Do not assume a coach can collect at any terminal door. Give the flight and terminal details, and keep the lead passenger contact available for the agreed collection instructions.
Can we continue from Hangzhou to Shanghai?
Include the next stop in Shanghai and its address in the initial brief. State whether it is a short visit, an overnight stay or the final destination; those are different vehicle and driver requirements.
How do the Shanghai and Nanjing stops compare from Hangzhou?
From the Hangzhou geographic reference, Shanghai is approximately 161.3 km away in a straight line and Nanjing is 236.6 km away. Shanghai is listed in Shanghai; Nanjing is listed in Jiangsu. The more distant stop needs to be treated as a separate stage of the itinerary, including any connections or overnight plans. These are map measurements, not driving distances; a feasible route and vehicle allocation must be assessed in the quotation.
Plan the next part of your journey
For a Zhejiang itinerary combining Hangzhou and Wenzhou, identify the date and overnight base for each city. Distinguish a retained touring vehicle from local transfers around separately booked rail or air travel.
