About Haikou Meilan International Airport

Overview

Haikou Meilan International Airport serves as a primary aviation gateway for Hainan Province, located in southern China. Situated at an elevation of 75 feet MSL near Haikou city, this large international airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the region. The airport supports both commercial passenger and cargo operations with its substantial infrastructure.

Flying Conditions

As an airport positioned in a tropical maritime climate, Haikou Meilan experiences significant seasonal wind variations that can impact flight operations. The airport's dual parallel runways (09/27 and 10/28), each measuring 11,811 feet in length, provide excellent operational flexibility for different wind conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential convective weather and tropical system influences typical of the coastal Hainan region.

Notable Features

The airport's geographic location at coordinates 19.934900, 110.459000 places it near the northern coast of Hainan Island, with relatively flat surrounding terrain. Both runways are constructed with concrete (CON) surfaces, offering stable ground conditions for aircraft movements. The substantial runway lengths support operations for wide-body commercial aircraft and provide significant margin for safe landings and takeoffs.

Approach Considerations

Given the airport's parallel runway configuration, air traffic can efficiently manage arrivals and departures with multiple approach options. The 11,811-foot runway lengths accommodate a wide range of aircraft types and provide extensive safety margins for landing and takeoff procedures. Pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind conditions due to the airport's coastal positioning.
