History

In 1991, construction started on Dayong Airport, which had its first test flight in December 1993 (Dayong is the former name of Zhangjiajie City).

The airport eventually opened for commercial flights under the name Dayong Zhangjiajie Airport on 18 August 1994. In 1995 it was renamed Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport. In 1999 it served 500,000 passengers annually.

In 2011, the first international flight (excluding Macao and Hong Kong) arrived from Seoul's Incheon International Airport.

In 2015, the second terminal opened after an 18-month construction period.
