CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- As one of the major Chengdu-Chongqing world-class airports, Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport completed 44.657 million passenger trips last year, ranking sixth in China.

Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport's passenger throughput last year has recovered to the level of 2019, ranking the top three among the top ten airports in China. The rapid recovery of passenger traffic is mainly due to the strengthening and upgrading of the trunk airlines. Last year, Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport consolidated and increased express flights to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, and completed the construction of the Chongqing-Fujian Express and Chongqing-Shandong Express, which greatly increased the number of passengers traveling between Chongqing and Fujian and Shandong.

In the near future, the airport will actively promote the opening of airline routes to New York, Los Angeles, Milan, Tokyo, Manila, and Jakarta to accelerate the improvement of the international (regional) passenger route network, to help Chongqing construct an international aviation hub, and to build Chongqing into a city with a new height of openness and an international consumption center.
