## Description

A reported 69,554 passengers in 2021 sums up the scale of Chaoyang Airport (IATA: CHG, ICAO: ZYCY) in western Liaoning, a minor regional field rather than a freight facility. The site dates back to 1933 and was last expanded in 2007; it is run by Liaoning Airport Management Group, and its schedule amounts to little more than a China Eastern link to Shanghai that has recently operated seasonally. No cargo terminal, freighter handling or named air cargo agent is confirmed at CHG, so any airfreight here would be small volumes of belly capacity. Exporters and importers around Chaoyang consequently route shipments through Shenyang Taoxian (SHE), roughly 400 road kilometres east, or the Beijing airports (PEK/PKX), some 430 kilometres southwest, where the relevant customs offices are located. Surface access improved markedly in January 2021, when the 698-kilometre Beijing-Shenyang high-speed line opened throughout, cutting the fastest journey between the two cities to 2 hours 44 minutes. The region is better known to palaeontologists than to shippers: the Jehol Biota fossil beds nearby produced some of the world's most famous feathered dinosaurs.
