Taizhou Luqiao Airport guide

Taizhou Luqiao Airport serves the coastal city of Taizhou in Zhejiang province from a site in Luqiao District, about 20 km from the city centre. The airfield was built by the People's Liberation Army Navy and completed in 1955. It became a joint military and civil airport in 1987, and civil service began in December 1987. It was known as Huangyan Luqiao Airport until it was renamed in December 2008.

The airport has one concrete runway, 03/21, which is 2,500 m long and 60 m wide. In 2025 it handled 2,447,367 passengers, up from a first year above one million passengers in 2018. Aircraft movements reached 19,433 that year, and cargo throughput was 13,211.7 tonnes.

About 15 airlines fly here, with routes to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Chengdu, Wuhan, Chongqing, Kunming, Harbin, Sanya and Qingdao. Since 2017 the Zhejiang Provincial Airport Group has managed the airport under an entrusted arrangement. A 35,000 m2 terminal, built as part of a major expansion, was brought into operation on 26 December 2024. It replaced the original 7,850 m2 building, which was designed for 600,000 passengers a year.
