connecting flights

Question

I am a Filipino(Ph passport)in Finland with a Schengen visa. I have a flight going to Chongqing from Finland  then to Philippines and back the same way. But my flight connection is too long, is it possible to go out without having to get a visa or is it ok to stay long hours/overnight in the airport as well. Thanks!How about the luggage? When and where will i get it? flight itinerary is.HEL-CKG arrives 0710 then CKG-MNL leaving at 1140. return isMNL-CKG arrives 2110 then CKG-HEL leaves 0950 (of next day)=12h40min wait.

If you want to go out of the airport, visa is required. In my opinion, you can wait at the transit area within the airport on your way to Philippines. And apply for a transit G from the embassy or consulate in Philippines for your return trip (you need to stay overnight outside in a hotel).
