As part of the nationwide winter timetable, all three daily Air China services between Yuncheng Salt Lake International Airport (YCU) and Beijing Capital Airport will operate from Terminal 2 starting 26 October. The change, announced on 25 October, affects flight numbers CA1140 (evening) and CA1128 (afternoon) as well as the YCU-Beijing Daxing CA8624 rotation.
For travellers, the shift means new check-in counters, security lanes and ground-transport patterns—T2 is 2 km from T3 and connected by shuttle bus and inter-terminal train. Yuncheng—home to multiple aluminium and agricultural-machinery exporters—relies on the Beijing shuttle for embassy visa runs, connecting flights and access to head-office functions in the capital.
Passengers are advised to arrive at least two hours before departure during the first week of operations as way-finding signage is updated. Corporate travel bookers should adjust automated PNR profiles to reflect the T2 terminal code to avoid ground-transfer mis-matches in expense systems.
Although a small adjustment in network terms, the move illustrates how China’s biannual timetable change cascades into local-level mobility planning.
