Beijing Capital International Airport Company Limited

History

The company's H shares was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 1 February 2000. It plans to issue A shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in the near future.

Li Peiying, a former head official of the company from 1995 to 2003, was found guilty in February 2009 of accepting $4 million in bribes and stealing a further $12 million in public funds. Li was executed on August 7, 2009 in Jinan after the Supreme People's Court upheld a lower court's rejection of his appeal.

Due to capacity constraints, BCIA was involved in feasibility studies for a second major airport to the south of Beijing. China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), and the Beijing municipal government were also involved in the feasibility studies. Construction of the second Beijing airport, Beijing Daxing International Airport, took place from 2014 to June 2019, and was officially opened on 26 September 2019.
