Shadi Airport was built in 1954. From 2002 to 2009, civil aviation services were stopped and changed to military airports. In 2009, civil aviation resumed. It is the fourth civil airport in the Pearl River Delta region after Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, Shenzhen Baoan International Airport and zhuhai jinwan airport.

The resumption of Shati Airport is mainly to alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand caused by the shortage of airspace resources in Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, so China United Airlines once again exclusively uses Foshan Shati Airport, which has been suspended for seven years.
