Chaoyang Airport (CHG)

Chaoyang Airport (CHG), also known by its ICAO code ZYCY, is a streamlined regional aviation facility serving the city of Chaoyang in Liaoning Province, Northeast China. Located in the Shuangta District, just 4 kilometers from the city center, the airport acts as a vital transportation node for the region's agricultural, fossil tourism, and manufacturing sectors. The facility has undergone recent modernization to provide a more comfortable and efficient experience for domestic travelers in the South-central part of Liaoning. The airport features a modern single passenger terminal building that integrates all essential flight operations under one roof. The terminal is designed with a logical and intuitive layout, with the check-in area and security screening clearly separated from the spacious arrivals hall. The facility's architectural style focuses on functionality, allowing for exceptionally quick transit times from the main entrance to the boarding gates. The airfield consists of a single 2,100-meter asphalt runway, which is capable of handling the regional narrow-body aircraft typically used for domestic trunk routes. Amenities at Chaoyang Airport are well-appointed for its size, catering primarily to domestic travelers. Inside the terminal, passengers have access to free high-speed Wi-Fi, dedicated mobile device charging stations, and a variety of small shops selling local handicrafts, newspapers, and travel essentials. The facility also includes a mother and child room, a medical first-aid point, and several cafes serving local refreshments. Accessibility is a priority, with ramps and specially equipped restrooms available for passengers with reduced mobility. Commercial services are primarily anchored by China Eastern Airlines, which provides frequent non-stop links to the major hub at Shanghai Pudong (PVG). Ground transportation into central Chaoyang is readily available via local taxis and city buses, ensuring seamless connectivity for all visitors.
