How many airports are there in our country (updated in July 2020)?

New airports are built in my country every year, and of course some old airports are closed, so the data on "how many civil aviation airports there are" is constantly changing. According to official statistics, there are currently 235 airports used for civil transportation in mainland my country.

But this statistical method has a problem. For example, it always includes "Sansha Airport (formerly Yongxing Island Airport)" and "Dalian Changhai" Airport. You can't go to Sansha Airport without a letter of introduction. In fact, there is only one Yun-12 of Feilong Airlines flying in Dalian Changhai. Their tickets cannot be found on OTA platforms such as "Ctrip".

And if Changhai Airport is to be included, the current Beijing Miyun Airport, Zhejiang Deqing Airport and Taiyuan Yaocheng Airport should also be included. Because in recent years China Express Airlines has launched many "general air routes", tickets can be purchased through the OTA platform, which is very exciting!

Airports can be classified into hub airports, trunk airports, feeder airports, etc., and can be divided into commercial airports, tourist airports, corporate airports (Huatugou and Shihezi), etc. Some tourist airports are seasonal, such as Fuyun, Mohe, and Burqin Kanas, so this data may be reduced when it is counted in winter.

Some airports will be closed forever or for a long time. For example, Nanyuan Airport will no longer have civil aviation after the construction of Daxing Airport. There is also Yongzhou Lingling Airport, which is no longer used because the runway has been in disrepair for a long time. Some airports are being newly built, such as the new airports in Dalian, Qingdao, Xiamen and Chengdu, as well as Wulongshan Heze Taxkorgan, etc. Therefore, the data of airports changes every year and should indeed be updated frequently.

The pace of airport relocation in my country is also very fast. In the past decade, a large number of cities have replaced their old airports or civil-military airports with luxurious modern new airports, including Luzhou, Qinhuangdao, Tangshan, Yan'an, Korla, Qiemo, Hefei, etc. If you want to experience the feeling of flying over the city like in Quzhou or Quanzhou, you may have to speed up.
