editIn October 2012, Bazhong officially started preliminary work on the airport.[4] The Bazhong Civil Airport was positioned as a domestic feeder airport, located near Fenghuangmiao Village in Enyang District, 13 kilometers in a straight line and 31 kilometers by road from Bazhong.[5] The construction of the airport began on February 5, 2015, with a total investment of 1.491 billion yuan.[4] The flight area was designed to 4C standards, with a 2600-meter-long and 45-meter-wide runway, and a 183-meter-long and 18-meter-wide perpendicular connecting taxiway. The main landing direction of the runway is equipped with a Category I precision approach instrument landing system (ILS).[6]
The airport completed its calibration flight on September 25, 2018, and successfully completed its test flight on November 28. On February 3, 2019, Sichuan Airlines flight 3U8015 took off from Chengdu and landed at Bazhong Enyang Airport, completing its maiden flight and marking the official opening of the airport.[7][8]
On November 30, 2020, Bazhong Enyang Airport officially opened its air cargo service.[9]
