Sanming Shaxian Airport — Sanming (Sha), China

Sanming Shaxian Airport serves Sanming city in Fujian province, southeastern China, situated near the Shaxian district known nationally for its distinctive local snack cuisine that has spread throughout the country. SQJ offers domestic routes connecting Sanming to major hubs such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, supporting business travel tied to the region's forestry, tea, and manufacturing industries.

Tourism to nearby scenic areas, including bamboo forests and traditional Hakka architecture, has also grown alongside the airport's expanding flight network within China's domestic aviation system.
