From Best Airport Tricks & Hacks

No Priority Pass. DragonPass leftover is McDonald’s landside 4F, dine-in, 06:00–21:00, not a CIP. CDN leftover 0 lounges / 0 restaurants leftover-conflicts with the live city page — sit the live McD product.

Airline F/J leftover the First Class Lounge opposite Gates 6–7. Snack CIP, no showers in the 30 Sep 2025 FlyerT. CMB leftover the next door on the same corridor.

Landside VIP leftover T2 1F — desk 0477-8901593 / 8878080. Walk-in price unpublished. Independent processing leftover is the point of paying; confirm before you sit.

Didi / Alipay leftover the T2 arrivals curb. Uber leftover is not CN. Bolt leftover is not CN. Meter leftover still ¥7 / 2 km then ¥1.6 on 22 Sep 2026; the 7.5 start leftover is a 19 Aug 2026 hearing, not a published tariff.

Airport bus leftover Dongsheng (service promise ≤45 min headway) and leftover Kangbashi / Ejin Horo buses (≤40 min). Travel-blog leftover ¥26 Dongsheng / ¥11 Ordos Station leftover-unverified against the operator — sit 0477-8168648 / 8878099.

01

TransportTraveler Tips & Hacks

Sit the bus clock before you sit a Dongsheng taxi

Airport bus leftover ≤45 min to Dongsheng; last city buses leftover ~17:35–18:00. After that leftover is a meter to 37 km north.

Inquiry leftover 0477-8168648 / 8878099. Travel-blog leftover ¥26 / ¥11 leftover-unverified. Uber leftover is not CN. Bolt leftover is not CN. Didi leftover the arrivals curb.

Pro

Kangbashi leftover ~16 km / ~20 min if the bus is running.

Watch-out

Miss the last 空港2 leftover ~17:35 and Dongsheng is a long meter.

02

LoungeTraveler Tips & Hacks

DragonPass is a McDonald’s, not a CIP

Live DragonPass leftover 1 dining hall (landside 4F McD 06:00–21:00) / 0 CIP rooms. Priority Pass leftover does not list DSN.

Airline F/J leftover the First Class Lounge opposite Gates 6–7. Snack CIP, no showers in the 2025 FlyerT. CMB leftover the next door. VIP leftover landside 1F.

Pro

Status actually has a dedicated room on a quiet pier.

Watch-out

Walk-up PP leftover does not exist; do not plan a Collinson visit.

03

LayoverTraveler Tips & Hacks

TWOV is not this port

NIA 240-hour leftover Inner Mongolia ports are Hailar, Manzhouli and Erenhot — not DSN. Skip-immigration leftover is the ten-hub list.

24-hour airside TWOV leftover still exists at every open port if you do not leave the restricted area. For a 10-day stay you need a visa, visa-free, or a TWOV entry at a listed port, then you still cannot treat Ordos as the stay region.

Pro

The field is a real 一类口岸 with live international metal.

Watch-out

Do not copy leftover Hunan / Shandong TWOV lists onto DSN.

04

NavigationTraveler Tips & Hacks

International is the same T2, not a leftover T1

T2 is the only live hall. English-wiki leftover two-terminal maps leftover-stale. Departures leftover 3F, arrivals 2F.

After security leftover Gates 1–5 left, 6–14 right. CIP leftover 6–7. Dedicated leftover English path /en/ is a 404 — sit ordosairport.com and 0477-8901111.
