A new ferry route serving Zhuhai residents ticketed for Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport was launched on April 26, as the Xin Hai Bin left Jiuzhou Port for Fuyong Ferry Terminal at 10:20 am.

Sixteen round-trip ferries operated by Jiuzhou Holdings Group are available daily, with the earliest leaving Jiuzhou Port at 7:30 am and the latest returning from Fuyong at 8 pm. A one-way journey takes an hour, with tickets costing 125 yuan ($18.60).

Fuyong Ferry Terminal is located southwest of Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport. Free shuttle buses take airline passengers to the Terminal 3, only 2 km (1.2 miles) away and reachable in 5 minutes.

In addition to air travelers, the new route also offers convenience for those destined for the Shenzhen International Convention & Exhibition Center and Phoenix Mt Forest Park in Bao'an District, as well as the Longhua, Guangming, Xixiang, Xin'an, and Shajing areas.

Not only does the route bring the west and east banks of the Pearl River closer, it also plays an important role in the economic and cultural integration of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, stated an executive of the operator.
