Starting in March 2008, Air China will begin using the newly
constructed Terminal 3 of the Beijing Capital Airport. Terminal 3 is
China's largest investment project for any airport and will serve as
the main supporting building for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
The one million square-meter Terminal 3 project also includes a
3,800-meter-long by 60-meter-wide runway, which will accommodate the
Airbus A380, the largest airplane in the world. Terminal 3 and its new
runway had been started in March 2004 and will double the current
passenger capacity of the Beijing Capital Airport by 2015.
"Air China is proud to be the flagship tenant in Beijing's
fabulous new Terminal 3," said Mrs. Lan Zhang, Vice President of Air
China. "Our familiar customers will benefit from the move to this
excellent new facility, and our new passengers joining for the 2008
Olympic Games will also be pleased with their state-of-the-art
experience here in Terminal 3."
Once in Terminal 3, Air China will launch a variety of advanced
systems in order to speed the service process and improve luggage
management capability. Complementing the new technology, Air China
will continue to offer its warm, traditional service to welcome
passengers. The move to Terminal 3 is an important step in the growth
of Air China, enabling the airline to serve the Olympic Games, launch
its enhanced network strategy, and offer world-class flying services
to its customers.
For additional airport infrastructure, the new Li-Tian highway
will run north of the airport, while the airport railway quickly
connects the city to the airport. Passengers may take the city railway
from Dongzhimen to the airport transportation center, located at the
south side of Terminal 3. The airport will also provide 7,000 parking
spaces next to the Terminal 3 building.
As China's sole designated flag carrier and the Airline Partner of
the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, Air China (HKEX: 0753; LSE: AIRC; SSE:
601111) serves 71 domestic and 43 international cities with an
extensive network from its Beijing hub, conveniently linking
passengers between China and destinations around the world. In North
America, Air China serves New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and
Vancouver with daily non-stop, three-class service to Beijing.
