History

edit

On November 8, 2002, the State Planning Commission officially approved the construction of Manzhouli Xijiao Airport.[2][3][4] The construction of the airport officially commenced on April 15, 2003.[2][5] The airport was completed on November 28, 2004, and a test flight was conducted on the same day. It was officially opened to traffic on February 25, 2005.[3][4] The airport had a 3C flight zone rating, with a runway that was 2,400 meters long and 45 meters wide, and an apron area of 12,727 square meters, which could accommodate two Category C aircraft.[6]

On May 1, 2006, the construction of the flight area for the second phase expansion project of Manzhouli Xijiao Airport officially broke ground.[7] The costs of the project was 290 million yuan.[8] Major works included extending the runway to 2,800 meters, enabling it to accommodate Boeing 767-200. The flight zone classification had been upgraded to 4D, the new apron could accommodate seven aircraft, and the new terminal building capable of handling 2 million passengers annually and 1,400 passengers during peak hours.[9][10] On January 20, 2007, the second phase expansion project of Manzhouli Xijiao Airport was completed, and a Boeing 767 passenger plane conducted a test flight.[8]

On 4 February 2009, the State Council of the People's Republic of China officially approved Manzhouli Xijiao Airport to open as a national first‑class aviation port.[11][12]

In March 2026, with the approval of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, Manzhouli Xijiao Airport was officially renamed Manzhouli Xijiao International Airport.[13][14]
