Transport
Direct answer
Prepare the first night before thinking about meetings: working data, payment fallback, Chinese hotel address, airport-to-hotel route, badge or registration documents, and a backup if the planned transfer fails.
Editorial check
This answer stays short so a traveler can act quickly, then points back to the fuller guide and the official checks that may change before departure.
Current Canton Fair registration guidance, hotel booking details, Guangzhou airport and metro information, taxi or ride-hailing pickup rules, payment app screens, and official event notices.
Action path
A practical answer should leave the traveler with a few moves they can actually make before the trip or at the point of friction.
Save the hotel address, fair registration details, and passport copies where they work offline.
Choose the airport-to-hotel transfer around luggage, arrival time, and whether payment already works.
Keep a payment fallback for taxi, metro tickets, food, and hotel check-in before the first fair day.
Current checks
Recheck before each Canton Fair phase and major Guangzhou arrival season.
