About Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport
Overview
Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport serves as a critical aviation hub in southern China, located in the Bao'an district of Shenzhen. Positioned at a low elevation of 13 ft MSL, the airport supports large-scale international and domestic air traffic with its substantial runway infrastructure. The airport's geographical coordinates at 22.639299, 113.810997 place it in a strategically important region for regional and international connectivity.
Flying Conditions
Situated near the South China Sea, Shenzhen Bao'an experiences a subtropical climate with potential for variable weather conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential seasonal wind shifts and tropical weather patterns that could impact flight operations. The airport's low elevation of 13 ft MSL suggests minimal altitude-related performance considerations for most aircraft.
Notable Features
The airport features two substantial concrete runways: Runway 15/33 at 11,155 ft and Runway 16/34 at 12,467 ft, providing excellent operational flexibility for various aircraft types. Its coastal location near Shenzhen indicates potential for maritime-influenced meteorological conditions and wind patterns that may require careful navigation and approach planning.
Approach Considerations
With two long concrete runways oriented in slightly different directions (15/33 and 16/34), pilots have multiple approach options based on prevailing wind conditions. The substantial runway lengths of over 11,000 and 12,000 feet provide significant margins for safe landings and takeoffs across a wide range of aircraft categories.
