Since March 2008, when Air China established itself in Beijing Capital
Airport's Terminal 3, journeys have become more convenient and enjoyable for
Air China's passengers. In Terminal 3, Air China has optimized its baggage
handling system and its departure control system, making collecting luggage
much quicker and easier for passengers. Furthermore, Air China has improved
the efficiency of airport transfers, enhanced check-in procedures and
developed several new services for its passengers. During the 2008 Beijing
Olympic Games, Air China successfully provided its passengers with the
optimal travel experience.
"We congratulate Capital Airport on surpassing the 60 million passengers'
milestone," said Air China Vice-President Zhang Lan. "Through Air China's
cooperation with Beijing Capital Airport, we have not only experienced a
record number of passengers, but also improvements in both safety and
services."
