About Haikou Meilan International Airport

Haikou's South China Sea location brings typhoon exposure and tropical weather. Generally warm and humid year-round.

Is Haikou Airport turbulent?

Haikou sits on Hainan Island in the South China Sea, directly in the typhoon track. Multiple typhoons affect the island each year from June through November. Outside of typhoon season, the tropical climate provides pleasant conditions with occasional thunderstorms. The island's position makes it one of China's most typhoon-exposed airports.

How do typhoons affect Haikou?

When typhoons approach Hainan, airlines cancel flights proactively. The island may experience direct hits or near-misses multiple times per season. The tropical tourism destination sees significant disruption during storm passages. Ferry services to the mainland also suspend during severe weather.

When is the best time to fly to Haikou?

December through April offers the lowest typhoon risk and most pleasant conditions. Typhoon season runs June through November with peak activity August-September. The tropical climate means warm temperatures year-round. Monitor forecasts closely during typhoon season.

Is turbulence at Haikou dangerous?

No. Modern aircraft are designed to withstand forces far stronger than turbulence. While bumps can feel uncomfortable, they do not pose a safety risk. Pilots actively avoid rough air whenever possible. Learn more about turbulence

Best seats to reduce turbulence when flying from Haikou?

Seats near the wings feel the least movement because they are closest to the aircraft's center of gravity. Seats at the back of the aircraft feel turbulence more strongly. Learn more about seat selection
