已有109岁高龄的中国历史上第一座机场——北京南苑机场将于本周内正式结束民用航空的使命，所有原中联航运营的航线都将平移到北京大兴国际机场。在见证了一个多世纪的相聚离别后，南苑机场迎来了告别的时刻。

　　With the official opening of the new Beijing Daixing International Airport, China will be ending operations at its oldest airport. Built in 1910, Beijing Nanyuan Airport was the first airport in China and was initially used for military purposes. It became both a civilian and military airfield to meet the growing demand for business and leisure travel in 1986, serving as a main hub for China United Airlines ever since. With the airport poised to close its doors, all of the China United Airlines services have moved to the newly-built Daxing airport, leaving behind the century-old airport that had served the country through its years of change.
