Guangyuan Panlong Airport (IATA: GYS, ICAO: ZUGU) is an airport serving Guangyuan, Sichuan province, China.[4]

History

In July 1992, the Guangyuan Government decided to build a new airport in Panlong Town, Lizhou District, Guangyuan City (about 14 kilometers from the city center). Construction officially began in February 1994, with a total investment of 460 million yuan. After six years, the airport was completed and put into operation in September 2000.[5][6]

Guangzhou Panlong International Airport suffered heavy losses and was forced to close at the end of 2004.[7]

In the devastating "5.12" Wenchuan earthquake, Guangyuan Airport suffered severe damage to its facilities. On May 8, 2009, after an additional investment of approximately 48 million RMB for airport renovation and reconstruction, the airport officially reopened after a five-year closure. The first route after reopening was a flight to and from Beijing.[8]
