Tianjin Airport to Own 20 City Terminals by Year-End
Tianjin Binhai International Airport (TSN), which now has 13 city terminals in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, is planning to expand the number to 20 by the end of 2015.
With Terminal 2 coming into service in August 2014, Tianjin airport has entered a brand new stage of development, and its soft power and brand effect have improved significantly. Meanwhile, it took the first step in aviation cooperation of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province, with the establishment of a marketing center and opening advisory and service counters in Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK).
With the rapid growth of China's economy, the airport has seen its passenger throughput volume rising rapidly. In 2014, as many as 12.07 million passengers traveled through Tianjin airport, a 20.3% increase from the prior year. Regional and international passenger numbers increased 54.6 percent to 1.56 million, topping on the list among major airports.
According to statistics, Tianjin airport handled 9.19 million passengers in this year, up 17.5 percent year on year. It is expected to serve 14 million passengers this year, aiming to handle 20 million passengers in 2020 and 30 in 2019, said the airport authority.
