Yichang, China · Asia-Pacific
Yichang's 2022 T2 is an easy 26 km hop with a ¥20 bus and a real sofa CIP — the tradeoff is snack-only Priority Pass, a seasonal T1 bank, and a 240-hour TWOV stamp that this port does not issue.
An editorial 0–10 score. The overall is exactly the weighted sum of six traveler categories — not a Google rating and not a poll.
