Haikou Meilan International Airport (HAK) serves Haikou on Hainan island, China. HAK Airport has domestic services at Terminal 1 and both domestic and international services at Terminal 2. Rail connections, buses, taxis and ride-hailing provide options for the onward journey, while luggage storage, Wi-Fi and family facilities help you plan time in the terminals.

Terminals at Haikou Meilan Airport

Terminal 1 handles domestic flights. Terminal 2 handles domestic and international flights, so a domestic itinerary alone does not tell you which building to use. Check the terminal on your ticket and the latest instructions from your airline before travelling to the airport. For a connection, check the terminal for each flight separately.

Moving between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2

An interterminal shuttle connects T1 and T2. Follow the airport signs to the shuttle boarding area and check the displayed service arrangements when you arrive. Leave room in your connection plan for the terminal change and for any check-in or security steps required for the next flight. Confirm with your airline whether you need to collect and recheck your luggage.
