As summer travel peaks, China Southern Airlines has launched a new 15-minute boarding service on its flights between Guangzhou and Beijing Daxing International Airport, quickly drawing attention online.
Starting Tuesday, passengers without checked baggage can board by arriving at the gate just 15 minutes before departure — breaking domestic airports' usual 30 to 40-minute cutoff time.
The Guangzhou-Beijing China Southern Air Shuttle operates 28 round trips daily, serving a high volume of business travelers. The new policy offers greater flexibility for last-minute changes, early or late departures, and frequent flyers.
需要注意的是,对于有托运行李的旅客,该航线的托运行李办理时间仍为起飞前30分钟。
该服务7月8日起在广州往返北京大兴的航线试运行后,未来还将计划扩大到更多广州始发的航线上。
Following the trial on this route, the airline plans to expand the service to more Guangzhou-originating flights in the future.
