Abstract This paper assesses whether geographical characteristics and service strategies influence the performance of Chinese airports. It examines the technical efficiency of 41 Chinese airports in 2008; with data envelopment analysis then regressed on environmental factors. The results show that airports located in cities with populations of more than two million are more efficient than those for other city sizes. Further, airports that are able to accommodate A380 or Boeing 747 aircraft are operationally more efficient than other categories, and airports' efficiency improves with the number of airlines using them. The distance between an airport and the local central business district, however, does not significantly affect its performance.

    Highlights ► Modified DEA provides evidence of efficiency in terms of technical, pure technical and scale on airport performance. ► Airports cities with populations of more than two million are more efficient than others. ► Chinese airports able to accommodate A380 or Boeing 747 aircraft are operated more efficiently.
