China Southern Prepares Move to Daxing International
Authorities expect Daxing Airport to host an average of 75 flights per day and an estimated daily volume of 8,000 passengers between April 12 to May 2.

State-owned China Southern Airlines has laid plans to move 50 percent of its Beijing flights to the capital’s new mega-hub, Daxing International, as part of a larger industry effort to prepare for the upcoming summer season. According to the Guangzhou-based carrier, plans call for it to transfer half of its flights operating at Beijing International Capital Airport to Daxing by May 2 and increase the proportion of flights from the new airport to 60 percent by March 2021. Once complete, the airline, which employs a dual-hub strategy from Beijing and its base in Guangzhou, expects to control a 43 percent market share at the newly built airport.
