NTG · Nantong's compact 2019 T3 is a ¥2 bus, a Gate 5 meal-window loft, and Osaka metal — the tradeoff is no metro, no 240-hour TWOV, and a T2 shell that is still not a door.
WUX · Jiangsu's second airport is a live T1/T2 machine with Metro Line 3 at the door — the tradeoff is a 2015 lotus hall rather than a new T3, a snack-grade Priority Pass V1 unless you are on MU or ZH metal, and a joint-use climb where the shades come down.

Eat 龙味馆 or 茶颜悦色, not the V1 CIP
Named T2 kitchens leftover on the DragonPass restaurant card and the FlyerTalk walk to 尊鹏阁. Sit those, then walk upstairs only if you actually need the room.
