Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Beijing (PEK)

Flight route information

Cathay Pacific offers flights to Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) from Manchester Airport (MAN), with a layover in Hong Kong. Experience the joys of flying with Cathay Pacific on our flights from MAN to PEK, which take around 16 hours 15 minutes, including the layover, and bring you to Terminal 3 in Beijing.

Upon your arrival in Beijing

To get to the city centre from the airport, taxis are the most convenient option as it takes approximately 35 minutes. Alternatively, board the Airport Express Line train, which departs from Terminal 3 at regular intervals and will arrive in downtown Beijing in around 20 minutes.

A brief introduction to Beijing

An intriguing blend of ancient temples and futuristic skyscrapers, Beijing is a thriving metropolis brimming with majestic architecture, sensational cuisine, and numerous notable landmarks.

Start your trip with the quintessential Beijing experience - by visiting its UNESCO World Heritage sites, which include The Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Temple of Heaven, Ming Tombs, and Grand Canal. The Great Wall of China is also a must-visit and can be reached from the city centre in approximately two hours.

Nestled in and amongst the historic temples and monuments dotted throughout Beijing are some of the city’s most impressive examples of modern architecture. Some of the most renowned buildings include Wangjing SOHO, the Capital Museum Building, CCTV Headquarters, and the National Centre for the Performing Arts.

Shopping enthusiasts should head to Qianmen Street to pick up authentic souvenirs and experience a mesmerising mix of culture, food, and entertainment. Nearby, you will find many of the city’s top restaurants serving up a vast array of local delicacies, including roasted Peking duck, Mongolian hotpot, and soybean cake.

For those looking to venture on a day trip outside Beijing, the coastal city of Tianjin is one of the top destinations as it can be reached in around 30 minutes by high-speed train. While here, be sure to visit the Five Great Avenues as it boasts over 230 buildings with varying styles of architecture, ranging from Renaissance, Greek, Gothic, Romantic, and Eclectic. We also recommend heading to the Porcelain House, which is a historical colonial building that was re-decorated using broken porcelain. The Tianjin Eye is also a must-visit as it is a 120-metre-tall ferris wheel that offers unrivalled panoramic views of the entire city.
