The scale is many times that of the current 10.
Airbus 300 can take off and land here.
Yesterday, Zhejiang Airport Authority confirmed that as a major project supporting the national strategy of Zhoushan Islands New Area, Zhoushan Putuoshan Airport Master Plan was recently approved by the East China Regional Administration of Civil Aviation and is expected to be expanded next year.
Many people don't know that Zhoushan Municipal Government 197 invested 4 1 10,000 yuan to build a 4D-class local civil airport in Shuguang Farm, Zhujiajian Island Island. It is a small airport with a total area of more than 3,000 mu, which can park three small and medium-sized planes at the same time, only meeting the take-off and landing requirements of Boeing 757( 180 seats). There are not many air routes, only Beijing, Shanghai, Jinjiang, Xiamen, Quanzhou, Guangzhou and other routes. There are 10 flights every day, and the passenger throughput ranks 67th among the 66 civil airports in China.
Compared with the existing six civil aviation airports in Zhejiang, namely Xiaoshan in Hangzhou, Lishe in Ningbo, Yongqiang in Wenzhou, Luqiao in Taizhou, Yiwu and Quzhou, the scale of Putuoshan Airport is only a little bigger than Luqiao and Quzhou Airport.
As Zhoushan Archipelago New Area has become a national strategy, small airports can no longer meet the needs of various types of construction and image display in the new area. The expansion of Putuoshan Airport has become a top priority for the local area.
After the expansion, the scale of Putuoshan Airport is more than 10. The goal is to rank among the domestic medium-sized airports, suitable for the take-off and landing of Boeing 767, Airbus 300 and other large aircraft, and prepare for the opening of foreign routes.
The Provincial Airport Authority said that after the expansion of Putuoshan Airport, it will undoubtedly enhance the openness of Zhoushan Islands New Area, facilitate domestic and foreign tourists to enter the island, and make it more convenient for people in eastern Zhejiang to travel.
At present, the regional planning and architectural design of Zhoushan Airport's new terminal building have been completed, and the 18 runway blind descent system project has recently passed the evaluation of the Civil Aviation Administration.
