Chengdu Shuangliu Airport to Panda base and back to airport

Hi,
My flight lands at CD at 7:45 AM and I have a domestic connection at 1:30 PM. I am planning to visit the Panda base. In order to make it early, I was planning to take a taxi from airport... do I need to negotiate a fare for airport taxis? I understand it will take 40 mins by taxi and about 1.5 hrs by metro.

I plan to leave the base around 11:30 AM in order to reach the airport by 12:30 PM. Is this sufficient time to travel back? Should I take the metro or taxi? Will I get a taxi easily and is there is possibility of getting stuck in traffic?

No, you don't need to negotiate the price because the official taxis in airport have taximeters.
To be honest, the time is too tight. Generally speaking, you need to go back to the airport at least 2 hours in advance before the departure.

Thanks for your response. My flight departs at 1:30. So if I leave the panda base at 11:30 it would be 2 hrs before departure. Or do you reckon I leave at 10:30. Would it take me two hours to return back to the airport?

I mean you should arrive at airport at 11:30.
It takes around 1 hour from panda base to the airport by taxi. So It is suggested to leave at 10:30.

Thank you Gina.
Is it recommended to take the metro both ways to avoid traffic? I preferred taxi in the morning in order to save time and reach early. Perhaps I can use a taxi from and to the nearest metro station?

I dont think i would need to Check in at the airport. I would get a through and through check-in from my earlier flight.
