How come they never include Hong Kong into the mix.

***hkskyline*** · February 7th, 2010, 06:31 AM

Hong Kong and Macau are usually separated out from mainland China. We're, however, part of Greater China due to our special administrative region status.

Numbers for Guangzhou and Beijing are impressive!

I wonder what's the breakdown like domestic versus international, particularly for the top 10?

bangalore · February 7th, 2010, 08:24 AM

very impressive indeed, especially since aviation sector shrunk almost everwhere else (India was an exception too, but the gains there are much more modest)

Can someone translate the titles please? I can't follow the second section of columns

Some translations:

旅客吞吐量: Passenger throughput
货物吞吐量: Cargo throughput
机场: Airport
名次: Rank
本期完成: (passenger / cago throughput) of current period
上年同期: the same period last year
比上年同期增减%: compared to the same period last year +-%

Interesting data. Always assumed that chinese airports have more traffic.

Chongqing only 14 million passengers?

For sure these numbers will double a few times in coming decades. The growth rates are impressive.

Beijings growth after the olympics is really impressive. In 3-5 years it could become the largest airport in the world. I think now it would be number 3 in the world.
To which amount of passengers is the Beijing airport limited right now?

WESTSEATTLEGUY · February 7th, 2010, 11:24 PM

Woah.. Beijing made a major jump this year. That makes them almost tied with Heathrow I think. Guangzhou's statistics are also very impressive....

ruifo · February 7th, 2010, 11:51 PM

impressive

Overall growth of 8% over 2008 (approx 125 M combined traffic figure for all airports in 2009, compared to China's 486 M)

Full year airport numbers are yet to be published. Delhi and Mumbai did 25.5 and 25 Million respectively (interim figures)

I heard that Beijing-Capitali slowly becoming a international transit hub. However, I'm beginning to doubt whether it could surpass Atlanta-Hartsfield Jackson anytime soon.

It won't as along as the following assumptions hold

1. China continues to rely on railway transportation as its backbone for domestic travel.

2. the USA continues the current trend of relying on cars for short-> medium ranged domestic travel and flights for medium -> long ranged domestic travel.

On the otherhand, if Obama comes through with his HSR promise and start building trains like they did the Interstate system back in the 50s, we will see a decrease usage from current levels at major US airports and Chinese airports will surly overtake them simply due to their overwhelming number of people.

I have my eyes set on Shanghai. Hongqiao is about to open a huge rail-airport-bus terminal. The potential is quite big although Hongqiao is mostly a domestic airport now.

SimFox · February 8th, 2010, 07:21 PM

isn't domestic travel the biggest source of growth anyway?

BTW I couldn't find any good renderings or photos of HongQiao expansion. Anyone seen those?? Big renderings of it that used to be in teh Beijing South Railway station had also been removed...
