Terminals2 passenger terminals currently in use — T1 (33,470 sqm, 6 boarding bridges; the original 1998 terminal, taken out of passenger service when T2 opened 25 Sep 2014, since reconfigured into a dedicated international-arrivals annex with a reported ~9,134 sqm customs/quarantine/联检 hall — not independently verified) and T2 (189,000 sqm, opened 25 Sep 2014, 3 floors + partial basement, 32 of 38 gates are boarding-bridge gates, Han-dynasty 'Phoenix Lantern'-inspired 'twin phoenixes returning to nest' design, designed capacity 16M pax/yr — approached but NOT exceeded, 2019's historical peak was 15.76M). A 432,000 sqm Terminal 3 is under construction: supporting-facilities work started Jan 2023, the terminal building itself broke ground Nov 2023, its metal roof was completed Oct 2025, and the whole terminal-area phase is still targeted for commissioning in 2027. T3 is paired with a new 3,800m second runway (commissioned 27 Nov 2025, making NNG Guangxi's first dual-runway airport) as one masterplan expansion phase designed for ~50M pax/yr and 690,000 t cargo capacity; the airport's own near-term (2030) target is 48M pax/yr, with a long-term (2050) masterplan envisaging up to 5 runways (a reserved 3rd/4th/5th runway position alongside the existing 2) and T4/T5 terminals for 80M pax/yr

Airport contact
Guangxi's principal international gateway and by far its busiest airport, ranked 33rd nationally by 2025 passenger traffic (13.5M, down 3.6% y/y; 2024 was 14.01M, also ranked 33rd). Positioned by both the airport and the Guangxi government as China's designated air gateway to ASEAN. As of the 2025 summer-autumn schedule, about 42 airlines operated 124 routes (103 domestic, 21 international/regional) to nearly 100 cities; international/regional passenger destinations include Bangkok, Vientiane, Hanoi, Hai Phong, Ho Chi Minh City, Phnom Penh, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Bandar Seri Begawan (Brunei), plus regional Macau and Hong Kong — Manila was added in March 2026 (via a Shenzhen Airlines tag flight). GX Airlines (Beibu Gulf Airlines, 北部湾航空) is headquartered in Nanning and operates NNG as its principal hub; China Southern, Shenzhen Airlines, Sichuan Airlines and Okay Airways also base aircraft here, with China Southern and China Eastern among the carriers serving the field. Joint civil-military airfield (co-located PLA Air Force station). Runway history: NNG operated on a single active runway from Dec 2008 (when the current 3,200m 05/23 replaced the original 1962 runway, demoting it to a taxiway) until 27 Nov 2025, when a newly built 3,800m runway (04/22, 2,200m east, rated to ICAO 4F) was commissioned — Guangxi's first dual-runway airport. Mid-expansion: Terminal 3 (432,000 sqm) broke ground Nov 2023 (site works from Jan 2023), roofed Oct 2025, targeted for 2027 completion, while T1 is being converted in parallel into a dedicated international-arrivals annex to T2; the long-term (2050) masterplan separately envisages up to 5 runways and 5 terminal buildings (T4/T5) for 80M annual passengers.
