Liuzhou Bailian Airport / Bailian Air Base guide

Liuzhou Bailian Airport sits about 13 km south of central Liuzhou, in Liuzhou's Liujiang District in Guangxi. It is a dual-use airfield shared by civil aviation and the military. The first flight left on 28 December 1994, after the airport replaced the older Maohe airfield.

The airport has one concrete runway, 16/34, about 2,500 m long. Since March 2022 the flight zone has been rated 4C, so the largest aircraft it handles is the Boeing 737-800. Flights stopped for about five months from October 2013 while the airfield was upgraded, and the 2014 apron expansion raised the number of aircraft stands from 4 to 10.

A two-storey terminal of about 22,840 square meters opened on 20 December 2016. It has 12 domestic check-in counters, 6 security lanes, 8 boarding gates and 6 boarding bridges, and is designed for 1.8 million passengers a year. Routes run to Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Wuhan, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Haikou and other domestic cities. Air China, China Eastern, Hainan Airlines, Sichuan Airlines and XiamenAir all fly here.
