High-speed rail to feed Hebei airport

Now that China's high-speed rail has a stop close to the largest airport in Hebei province, the airport has become an even better alternate flight destination for travelers heading to or from nearby Beijing.

On Wednesday, the new high-speed rail terminal opened near Shijiazhuang Zhengding International Airport.

About 13,000 passengers, 70 percent of whom were individual travelers, used the airrail integration in the past two months after the train began stopping in the airport's rail station on Dec 26.
