Long-distance visit from Beijing Capital International Airport…

On April 24 we had a long-distance visit from Beijing. It was a group from Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) who visited at their visit to Swedavia where the purpose of the visit was to study Swedavia’s development of sustainable airports.

Swedavia/Stockholm Arlanda Airport is a “sister airport” with Beijing Capital International Airport since 2016. All “Sister Airports” meet annually in a joint forum, “Beijing Global Friend Airport’s CEO Forum”, for joint discussions on various issues. We are very proud to be able to give the Chinese delegation a tour of our facility at Arlanda.

The current visit focused on sustainability in connection with the construction of Beijing’s new airport: Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX), which opens on China’s National Day on October 1, 2019.
