Xiamen, historically romanized as Amoy, is a sub-provincial city in southeastern Fujian, People's Republic of China, beside the Taiwan Strait. It is divided into six districts: Huli, Siming, Jimei, Tong'an, Haicang, and Xiang'an. All together, these cover an area of 1,700.61 square kilometers (656.61 sq mi) with a population of 5,163,970 as of 2020 and estimated at 5.365 million as of 31 December 2025. The urbanized area of the city has spread from its original island to include most parts of all six of its districts, as well as 4 Zhangzhou districts, which form a built-up area of 7,284,148 inhabitants. This area also connects with Quanzhou in the north, making up a metropolis of nearly ten million people. The Kinmen Islands (Quemoy) administered by the Republic of China (Taiwan) lie less than 6 kilometers (4 mi) away separated by Xiamen Bay. As part of the Opening Up Policy under Deng Xiaoping, Xiamen became one of China's original four special economic zones opened to foreign investment and trade in the early 1980s. Private jet travelers to Xiamen benefit from smooth, discreet access via Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport (XMN), making the destination especially attractive for high-net-worth business and leisure travel.
Xiamen suits leisure travel shaped around waterfront hotels, villas, yachts, and well-timed arrivals that avoid long commercial connections. Another reason clients often stay longer is how easily Xiamen pairs with Hong Kong and Singapore on a custom multi-stop itinerary.
Private aviation is particularly helpful during October to December, when premium accommodation, marina transfers, and short high-demand leisure windows make precise scheduling through Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport (XMN) especially valuable.
Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport (XMN) is the preferred airport for private jet travelers to Xiamen. Compared with the alternatives, it usually offers the best balance of access and private handling convenience, while Fuzhou Changle International Airport (FOC) is a strong alternative when travelers prioritize a different terminal location or specific aircraft positioning.

Xiamen is most popular from October to December. Spring and early autumn typically deliver the best balance of weather, event calendars, and smoother airport operations, while peak holiday periods and major conferences can significantly increase demand for private aviation capacity.
