Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (

Shenzhen Donghai Airlines and for cargo airline SF Airlines, China Southern Airlines and Hainan Airlines. The airport also serves as an Asian-Pacific cargo hub for UPS Airlines.[1]
The airport underwent major expansions in the 2010s, with a second runway opening in 2011, and a new terminal in 2013.

It is one of the three largest airports serving the Pearl River Delta, alongside Hong Kong International Airport and Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport. The airport has direct ferry routes to Hong Kong International Airport, where passengers can transit without going through immigration and custom checks.[2]

History

The airport was opened on 12 October 1991. It occupies an area of 10.8 km2 (2,700 acres). Its first runway is 3400 m long and 45 m wide, and it has 53 parking spaces on its apron. Shenzhen airport handled 49,348,950 passengers in 2018, according to Civil Aviation Administration of China, making it the

5th busiest airport in China in 2018. Air China launched the first intercontinental air route out of Shenzhen, to Frankfurt Airport, Germany, on 21 May 2016.[3]

Former terminals

Terminal A and B primarily served domestic flights. Terminal D, the international terminal, was opened in December 2008. It had no air gates of its own, just airside bus service to distant positions around the airport. These terminals covered an area of 152,000 square meters (1,640,000 sq ft) and consisted of 24 jetways.[4] All three former terminals were closed on 27 November 2013, with the brand new replacement Terminal 3 opening the following day.[5]

Current terminal

At the beginning of 2008 the 1.6 km (0.99 mi) long new terminal commenced being built as one of main works for the 2011 Summer Universiade. This new terminal building was called "Terminal 3" from the beginning of construction until its formal opening. Soon after the decision of the closure of Terminals A, B and D, "Terminal 3" was renamed as it was the only terminal building in operation. The terminal was opened on 28 November 2013 after 4 years of planning and construction.[citation needed]

Further expansions

A new satellite concourse, designed by Aedas, opened in December 2021. It is located directly to the north of the existing Terminal 3 building and is designed with a capacity of 22 million passengers per year. It is directly connected to the main terminal by an Automated People Mover (APM) system.[6]

Passenger transport facilities

The passenger transport facilities are divided into three parts: a main terminal building and two large corridors—1,050 meters (3,440 ft) long and 650 meters (2,130 ft) wide—that form a cross shape. The current terminal is three times the size of former Terminals A and B, with 450,000 square meters (4,800,000 sq ft) of floor space, 62 boarding gates[citation needed] and the ability to accommodate any type of plane in the world. The main building has four floors above ground and two floors underground. A connecting Ground Transport Center adjoins the terminal to the south. The main building's third floor is the waiting area for domestic and international flights, which depart from the east wing.

Ground transportation

Ground Transportation Center entrance

Ground Transportation Center

The baggage areas are a short walks away from the Ground Transportation Center (GTC), where passengers can take buses, taxis and

Guangzhou-Dongguan-Shenzhen Intercity Railway
, which is under construction. Regular bus and minibus services links the Airport with the rest of the city. Intercity bus services to some other nearby cities such as Hong Kong and Dongguan are also available.

Local taxis, and often some taxis from Dongguan, can pick up passengers there from three designated waiting areas. These areas have the capacity to handle 21 taxi cabs picking up passengers simultaneously.[59]

Metro / Rail

Airport station

Bitou
.

There are also shuttle services connecting with

Hourui Station
and the new terminal.

Airport North Station on Line 11 is also built, under the site of future new Terminal project - "Terminal 4". However, Airport North Station is inaccessible to or from any of the airport facilities. Line 20 (Shenzhen International Exhibition Center Conveyance Project) links Airport North Station on Line 11 with services to Chongqing Road, International Exhibition Center South, International Exhibition Center North and International Conference Center stations. Line 20 opened in December 2021.

Guangzhou–Shenzhen intercity railway is currently under construction, and planning to provide services from Shenzhen Airport Station and Shenzhen Airport North Station. In the future, Shenzhen–Maoming High-Speed Railway and Hong Kong–Shenzhen Western Express Railway are planned to stop here.

Ferry

Fast ferries are available to

Fuyong Pier
. Free shuttle buses connect the Pier and the Airport.

Direct services to Hong Kong Island and Kowloon were suspended because the Terminals A & B's long distance from the ferry terminal made it unpopular for commuters.[citation needed] However, with the opening of Terminal C, direct services may be resumed because it is much closer.

Airport express shuttle bus

Airport express shuttle bus station

There are many bus routes between the airport and the urban area, most of them via expressways and only cost ¥10 yuan. A future service connecting the airport with Shenzhen North station is expected to start when the new Terminal 3 opens as part of 5 new major airport express shuttle buses.[59]

Cross-border buses

Buses currently run mostly via

Trans Island Limousine Service Ltd[60] serving SZIA and Hong Kong, including Sheung Wan, Causeway Bay, Mong Kok (Prince Edward), Tsim Sha Tsui
and Hong Kong International Airport.

A direct coach service, operated by Chinalink Bus Company, is available at Elements Mall in Hong Kong. Passengers may check-in for their flights at the bus terminal but luggage must still be carried to the airport by the passengers. The service operates from Kowloon station on the Airport Express (MTR) line direct to the Shenzhen International airport.[61]

Shenzhen–Zhongshan Bridge

The planned Shenzhen–Zhongshan Bridge will directly connect Shenzhen Baoan International Airport on the eastern side of the Pearl River Delta with the city of Zhongshan on the western side. It will consist of a series of bridges and tunnels and will cut travel time from Shenzhen to Zhongshan to less than 30 minutes. Construction of the proposed 51 km (32 mi) eight-lane link started in 2017, with completion scheduled for 2024.[62][63]

Other facilities

Donghai Airlines headquarters

Shenzhen Donghai Airlines has its head office in the Shenzhen Airlines facility on the airport property.[66]

SF Airlines has its headquarters in the No.1 Freight Depot of the International Shipping Center.[67]
