T3 at Beijing Capital International officially opened today, greeting a domestic flight from Shandong with bouquets before a British Airways flight touched down a few hours later. While officials expect 64 million passengers to pour through this year, so far there are no lines at the nearly 300 check-in counters.
The soft opening today has the terminal hosting six airlines. By March 26, 20 more carriers will move into the building, undoubtedly making things busier.
Even once all those flyers start arriving, there should be enough services to go around. T3 has 64 restaurants and 84 retail outlets, connected by 437 moving sidewalks and a high-speed train. Good thing, that. From end to end, the new terminal stretches more than two miles.
