Beijing Daxing International Airport (IATA: PKX, ICAO: ZBAD), is a large international airport located on the border of Beijing and Langfang, Hebei Province. The airport is Beijing's second international airport, after Beijing Capital International Airport. It has been nicknamed "the starfish". It was completed on June 30, 2019, and began operations on September 26, 2019. The airport is 46 kilometres (29 mi) south of Tiananmen Square, 26 kilometers (16 mi) west of downtown Langfang, 50 kilometers (31 mi) northeast of Xiong'an New Area, and 65 kilometers (40 mi) south of Beijing Capital International Airport, and serves Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. It is a hub for SkyTeam alliance airlines and some Oneworld members, while most Star Alliance members have remained at Beijing Capital International, as has Hainan Airlines. After almost five years of construction, the CN¥ 80 billion (US$11.4 billion) facility features a 700,000 m2 (7,500,000 sq ft) terminal, the world's largest single-building airport terminal, and sits on 47 km2 (18 sq mi) of land. The airport won the award of best airport by hygiene measures in Asia-Pacific in 2020 by Airports Council International. The airport opened on 25 September 2019—just six days before the 70th anniversary of the People's Republic of China—in a ceremony attended by the Chinese president and General Secretary of the Communist Party Xi Jinping. Inaugural flights from seven Chinese airlines began later in the afternoon, although flights operating out of the airport on the day were member-only, with the first official flight out of the airport an Airbus A380 operated by China Southern Airlines. Flights for the public began the following day on 26 September 2019. The first commercial flight landed at Beijing Daxing at 10:12 (UTC+8), September 26, 2019. The airport serves as the hub for China United Airlines immediately after its opening and all their services have been relocated to Beijing Daxing. Others, such as China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines, will also relocate. Upon opening of the Daxing Airport, Beijing Nanyuan Airport, the oldest airport in China, closed on the same day. A military airfield will coexist in Daxing, as was the case in Nanyuan.
