Daxing Airport Express[8] of the Beijing Subway (Chinese: 北京地铁大兴机场线; pinyin: Běijīng Dìtiě Dàxīng Jīchǎng Xiàn) is an airport rail link from Caoqiao (located at the Southern 3rd Ring Road) to the Beijing Daxing International Airport. It is colored blue on subway maps.[9] The line opened on September 26, 2019.[6]

It is one of two lines connecting the urban area of Beijing to the Beijing Daxing International Airport. The other line is the Beijing–Xiong'an intercity railway, a high-speed rail operated by China Railway.

The line is the second Beijing Subway line to be fully automated and driverless, after the Yanfang line.
