About Qingdao Airlines
Qingdao Airlines started flying in 2014 from the Shandong port city whose name it carries, with an all-Airbus A320-family fleet. It is a smaller private carrier that has grown steadily on domestic leisure and regional business routes.
Its home moved with the city's airport: Qingdao's operations transferred from the old Liuting field to the new Jiaodong International Airport in 2021.
Qingdao Airlines flights from Beijing Daxing
Two Daxing routes, both to the southwest rather than to its own base: Xichang in Sichuan and Xishuangbanna in tropical Yunnan. Xishuangbanna in particular is a leisure destination on the Laos border that sees heavy Chinese domestic tourism in winter.
Qingdao Airlines flies from PKX to 2 destinations:
- Xichang
- Xishuangbanna
Route lists change with the summer and winter schedules, and frequencies change more often than that. For the flights operating today, check the live arrivals and departures boards.
Planning your trip
At Beijing Daxing, Qingdao Airlines checks in at Departures level 4. Check-in closes 30 minutes before departure on domestic flights and 45 minutes before departure on international ones — Daxing is a large building, and the walk from check-in to a far gate is a real part of your timing.
- Neither route is daily on every schedule — confirm the operating days for your travel week.
- Xishuangbanna's airport is small; peak-season queues there are long relative to the flight.
- The A320 fleet means standard domestic baggage rules rather than low-cost stripping.
Getting to the airport takes planning of its own: the Daxing Airport Express and the intercity railway are the fastest options from central Beijing, with taxis and private transfers as the door-to-door alternatives. The airport guide covers terminal layout, security and what is open landside.
