TRANSIT FLY Review: With the recent opening of the new "L1" Subway Line, passengers arriving at Beijing Capital Airport can now easily access the majority of tourist and business destinations in Beijing via the Beijing subway system. The L1 subway line marks a major improvement for Beijing and the region by providing consistent and direct service to the Beijing Capital Airport. As plans over the next decade call for a major expansion to the Beijing subway system the ease of airport transit at the Capital Airport will only get better. In addition to new subway service, those with large luggage may prefer the Official Beijing Capital Airport Shuttle buses, which provide excellent service to/from a variety of destinations in the metropolitan area. |
