At exactly 0:00 on August 12, Jiaodong International Airport was immediately put into operation. At the new period in which the timeframes of the Two Centenary Goals will converge, the larger Jiaodong International Airport takes over the baton from Qingdao Liuting International Airport.
Bye, Liuting! Hi, Jiaodong!
Larger Airports
Since ancient times, the port of commerce and the ancient tea horse road is a prosperous place. Airports are precisely the contemporary global business path.
Jiaodong International Airport is the only 4F class airport in Shandong province, which is also the highest class of the airport.
With air express routes to the core cities of domestic urban clusters and important aviation hubs in the central, western and northeastern regions, it has been opened about 130 domestic destinations. What’s more, a regional airline operation network covered third- and fourth-tier cities.
International and regional destinations are connected to about 50 key cities in Japan, Korea, Europe, America, Australia, Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
Greater Openness
The new airport is further from the city while Qingdao is closer to the world.
Qingdao's location advantage can integrate the two-way cooperation to the west and east, deepen the exchange and cooperation with SCO countries, and face Northeast Asia, Japan and Korea, so that the two-way cooperation between east and west intersects and interacts here.
This is the great trend of Qingdao's opening up.
Bigger Dreams
A high-quality and open city should be a stage for global talents to realize their dreams.
The opening of Jiaodong International Airport is a key step for Qingdao to expand its opening. This is not only the opening of Qingdao, but also serves the opening of the entire Jiaodong Economic Circle, the entire Shandong Province, and the entire Yellow River Basin.
Building Northeast Asia International Shipping Center, Qingdao Air Port has changed into bigger wings.
Liuting International Airport bade farewell to the airport era to free up valuable development space. Jiaodong International Airport comes into the airport era to plan the rise of a new city and outline a more open future.
Jiaodong will hands with Liuting to spread out a greater Qingdao!
