China’s civil aviation sector is currently at a stage of high growth. The prospects for Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, one of China’s three most important international aviation hubs, is enormously promising. With an annual passenger volume of 73.1735 million in 2023, Baiyun Airport now operates 3 runways and 2 terminals. By 2025, it will have 5 runways and 3 terminals.

As the sole aviation fuel supplier of Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, Bluesky is well positioned for continued growth and innovation, in keeping with the exponential growth of China’s civil aviation market and providing even better service for its aviation customers. It will also enhance its economic performance, environmental standard and social responsibilities, and maximise returns for its shareholders.
