Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport is the major airport in Chengdu, China. It is located in the north of Shuangliu County, about 16 kilometres (10 mi) southwest of downtown Chengdu.[1] In 2008, it was the busiest airport in Western China and the 6th busiest airport nationwide in terms of passenger traffic. Shuangliu Airport was also the 6th busiest airport in terms of cargo traffic and the 7th busiest airport by traffic movements in China as for 2008. On May 12, 2008 the airport was temporarily shut down after sustaining some minor damages from the great Sichuan Earthquake but was quickly reopened the following day after inspection of the runway. The continued operation of the airport played a crucial role in facilitating the rescue work after the earthquake.

A large-scale expansion was conducted on flight area and navigation area from 1994 to 2001. The runway was extended to 3,600m with Class 4E rating, allowing for larger jumbo jets including Boeing 747-400. The newly built terminal building was incorporated with three-parallel-porch design, accommodating an hourly capacity of 3,500 passengers at rush hours, while the previous terminal buliding was only designated for regional flights within Sichuan and Chongqing henceforth.[citation needed]

The airport is now an international civil airport with flights to more than 20 international destinations and many domestic airports, and is a hub for Air China and Sichuan Airlines. It is linked to downtown Chengdu by an expressway.

The construction of its second runway started from late 2008 and is going to get into service in October 1, 2009. The new runway, with 3,600 m length and 60 m width, will upgrade the current flight area rating from 4E to 4F, capable of handling AirBus A380.[7] The new Terminal 2 has started construction in June 2009 and is expected to get into service in 2011, the new terminal is twice the size of the current T1, which will allow the airport handle up to 35 million passengers annually.
