Best flight strategy Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) to Zhuhai, China?

Question

I will go to visit my Chinese sweetheart for the first time in October/November 2008!

She lives in Zhuhai, China and I live in Minneapolis, MN (MSP=airport code). [MSP is a hub for Northwest Airlines (NWA).]

What are the best flight/airline choices? Could it be through Macau (since it is so close to Zhuhai)?

If Macau is a good choice, will I have more problems entering/leaving China (i.e. what to watch out for visa-wise)?

THANK YOU!

Answer 1

If you get a cheap deal to Macau, then just enter Macau and then take a bus/taxi to Zuhuai .It's cheap and convenient.

If you are an American,you don't need a visa for 30 days stay in Macau.Of course to enter China,you need a visa.

Answer 2

Going through Macau will not present any visa problems. You don't need a  visa to go to Macau but apply for your Chinese visa before leaving the states. You can apply for it in Macau as well but I recommend you sort it out before leaving in case there are any problems.. Fly to Macau and take a bus or something to Zhuhai.
