On 9 February 2018, Zhuhai Jinwan Airport has official launch of its upgraded Eastern Finger Corridor. With the addition of the Eastern Finger Corridor, the Zhuhai airport has a total of 17 boarding gates, of which the Eastern Finger Corridor has 8 boarding gates while the Western Finger Corridor has 9 boarding gates. There are 6 remote parking bays at the airport.



Zhuhai Jinwan Airport, formerly known as Zhuhai Sanzao Airport, consisting of both Western and Finger Corridors, first started operations in June 1995 with assistance of Hong Kong Airport expertise. However, due to low air traffic, the Eastern Finger Corridor was left closed for 20 years. 



On 15 August 2017, upgrading of the Eastern Finger Corridor started and ended on 15 October 2017. In November, test operations started with flights of Air China, Shenzhen Airlines, Kunming Airlines, Shandong Airlines and China Express Airlines allowed to land at this side of the terminal.
