Foshan Shadi Airport (simplified Chinese: 佛山沙堤机场; traditional Chinese: 佛山沙堤機場; pinyin: Fóshān Shā Dī Jī Chǎng) or Foshan Airport (simplified Chinese: 佛山机场; traditional Chinese: 佛山機場; pinyin: Fóshān Jī Chǎng) for short is the airport of Foshan, Guangdong, China (IATA: FUO, ICAO: ZGFS).
It was once a regional airport with both military and domestic usage since 1987, and became a base of China United Airlines (CUA) in Guangdong Province. When CUA ceased domestic flights on November 1, 2002, Foshan Airport remained military service. The airport resumed its regional airport status in 2005 when the regrouped CUA, which was partly purchased by Shanghai Airlines, resumed domestic flight service. And finally, in the end of 2009, the flight to Beijing Nanyuan Airport was reopened. It is expected that domestic flight linkage between Foshan and at least ten Chinese cities including Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Yinchuan etc. will open in the near future.
