In a few years people flying out of Wuhan, Central China's Hubei province, will be able to check in before they arrive at the airport.

Shoudi City Terminal, which will have the same passenger check-in function as terminals at the airport, will be located in the city's Central Business District.

Investment in this terminal is expected to hit 1.8 billion yuan ($266.29 million) and is expected to be finished by June 2020.

The construction area is about 117,900 square meters. The completed project will include an aviation business complex containing a terminal, an office building and high-end business and leisure areas.
