Xi'an Xianyang International Airport

Xi'an Xianyang International Airport (ZLXY) is a large airport in Xianyang (Weicheng), China. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code ZLXY or IATA code XIY. It sits in Asia.

Xi'an Xianyang International Airport is a commercial-airline hub that also handles a steady stream of private and corporate traffic. Mixed commercial and private operations mean planners should expect slot coordination, handling agent involvement, and the usual international hub procedures.

Xi'an Xianyang International Airport lies at 1,572 ft elevation.

Local operations run on Asia/Shanghai. Because the field hosts scheduled airline operations, private operators should expect a defined slot environment, possible CDM coordination at peak banks, and limited ramp availability during major event weekends. Booking FBO ramp space in advance is normal practice.

SkyAccess inventory for ZLXY updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.

As one of the larger fields in China, ZLXY tends to be the natural choice for long-range international charters and crew-rest-required flights.
