Air China Celebrates with Beijing Airport in Reaching This Important Milestone for 60
Million Passengers
BEIJING, Dec. 4 /PRNewswire-Asia-AsiaNet/ --
At 9:50 am on November 30, the arrival of Air China flight CA 912 from Stockholm to
Beijing Capital Airport took the number of passengers who have travelled through Beijing
Airport past 60 million. This important milestone is testament to the boom that the
Chinese civil aviation industry is currently experiencing. With more flights arriving in
and departing from Beijing than any other international or domestic airline, Air China
celebrates this milestone with Beijing Capital Airport.
Since March 2008, when Air China established itself in Beijing Capital Airport's
Terminal 3, journeys have become more convenient and enjoyable for Air China's
passengers. In Terminal 3, Air China has optimized its baggage handling system and its
departure control system, making collecting luggage much quicker and easier for
passengers. Furthermore, Air China has improved the efficiency of airport transfers,
enhanced check-in procedures and developed several new services for its passengers.
During the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Air China successfully provided its passengers
with the optimal travel experience.
"We congratulate Capital Airport on surpassing the 60 million passengers'
milestone," said Air China Vice-President Zhang Lan. "Through Air China's cooperation
with Beijing Capital Airport, we have not only experienced a record number of
passengers, but also improvements in both safety and services."
