Beijing Daxing International Airport

Beijing Daxing International Airport (Chinese: 北京大兴机场) or Beijing Capital (2nd) International Airport (Chinese: 北京首都第二机场) is a planned new airport serving Beijing. The name of the future airport has not been made official yet.

The airport is to be built in Daxing District, located 46 km (29 mi) south of Tiananmen Square. The airport will be located on the southern part of Daxing along the border with Hebei province. The new airport is expected to serve Tianjin and Hebei province as well as Beijing. The airport will cover an area of 2,680 hectares.

The programmed completion date for the new airport is October 2018. A new 37 km (23 mi) high speed rail line is planned which will connect the airport to Beijing South railway station with a journey time of 30 minutes. All flights from Beijing Nanyuan Airport which only China United Airlines operate out of, would be transferred to Daxing.

The airport's master plan has been designed by airport consulting firm NACO and will feature a ground transportation centre providing the airport with public transportation links to high speed rail, metro and inter-airport trains. Other consulting firms are competing to design the termininal building.
