Rizhao Shanzihe Airport — Rizhao (Donggang), China

Rizhao Shanzihe Airport serves the coastal city of Rizhao in Shandong province, China, primarily handling domestic passenger flights linking the port city to major hubs like Beijing and Shanghai. RIZ was developed to support the region's growing steel, shipping, and tourism industries, as Rizhao is known for its beaches and as a hub for iron ore imports. The airport is relatively small, with a single terminal and limited daily departures compared to larger Shandong gateways such as Qingdao. It functions mainly as a feeder airport, connecting Rizhao's business travelers and residents to China's broader domestic aviation network rather than serving significant international traffic.
