One thing I have noticed about the Songming area is that there are many days during the cooler months that are clear in the south end of Kunming city, but with heavy fog in Songming. I wonder if this was considered by those in charge ?

28th of June!!!!!

The first time I EVER read anything about Kunming (back in 2007), they said the new airport would open in 2009. Looks like it's right on schedule!

Some nice photos of the terminal:

Looks like they might actually make that June 28 date?

Any updates? June 28th is just over 2 weeks away now... might be flying somewhere soon after...

says the metro line to downtown will be operational by June 28. Can this be right? Is this even close to correct? If so, that would be sweeeeeet....

Yep, at 8am on June 28:

This describes a test run of the rail line from the east bus station to the new airport, though I can't figure out if it will be running on day 1:
