The test flight for Bayingolin Luntai Airport was completed on Tuesday by Chengdu Airlines using the domestically produced C909 aircraft, marking a key step before it becomes the 29th civil transport airport in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The 4C-standard facility aims to handle 300,000 passengers annually by 2030. With planned routes to Urumqi, Beijing, Chengdu, and Xi'an, the airport will fill the county's aviation gap and strengthen the aviation network in southern Xinjiang.
