Airport Name Changing

Hi there! Just here to report an airport in China has changed name.

Urumqi Diwopu Int’l (URC/ZWWW) has changed the name into “Urumqi Tianshan Int’l” in March 2025. Based on Ürümqi Tianshan International Airport - Wikipedia.

Thanks!

Hi,
Thank you very much. Since the Chinese AIP is not public for the data provider, the data provider can´t verify it. So, such changes are much slower than official/public AIPs. We (and also the data provider) do not influence this. It´s the country itself that doesn´t offer it for the data provider.

Thank you again for the information.

Oh I see, thx!

I got the official Chinese eAIP website if it helps you guys, and it’s free, just need a unstricted register:

Hi,
Latest China eAIP (2025-05) still provides ZWWW airport name as Urumqi Diwopu International Airport
