Can I make a 1 hour connection at CSX on an international flight?
1 hour is below the 75-minute international MCT at Huanghua. You may need to rush and could miss your connection. Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 are connected via an enclosed walkway and a periodic shuttle bus for passengers with heavy luggage or mobility needs, taking roughly 10-15 minutes on foot. Passengers arriving internationally at T3 must clear immigration, collect bags, and pass through customs before security re-screening for any onward domestic flight, which adds significant time versus a pure domestic-domestic transfer.
What happens if I miss my connection at CSX?
Passengers who miss a connection should go directly to their airline's transfer desk in the arrival terminal, as China Southern and other carriers maintain rebooking counters near the domestic gates; international travelers with missed connections should seek assistance at the T3 international arrivals hall before clearing customs.
