Tianjin Binhai International Airport (TBIA) plans to bring in more passenger and cargo airliners to counter the global recession.
"In 2009, we aim to expand our cargo transportation volume by 30 percent to 240,000 tons while increasing passenger transportation volume by 35 percent to 6 million people," TBIA president Shao Dengxiang said on the local people's congress' sideline.
"In two to three years, TBIA will squeeze its way into China's top five in terms of cargo transportation volume."
