Beijing Commercial Daily (Reporter Xiao Wei and Yang Hui) In order to further stimulate the vitality of the domestic market, the Civil Aviation Administration has called for the adjustment and optimization of domestic flight management policies. On September 15, Jin Junhao, Inspector of the Department of Transportation of the Civil Aviation Administration, stated at a regular press conference that to meet the needs of actual operations and monitoring since the epidemic, and to further stimulate the force internal driving force for airlines, the Civil Aviation Administration issued the “About The Notice on domestic flight review work for the 2020/21 winter and spring season (hereinafter the” Notice “), adjust and relax the policies of access to flights of some national routes, clearly relaxes the maximum weekly flight restrictions for the approved flight segments, and Relaxation of the access restrictions to the three main airports of the routes of the branches “North, Shanghai and Guangzhou “.
It is understood that in November 2018, the Civil Aviation Administration of China issued the “National Civil Aviation Flight Review Rules” (hereinafter “Review Rules”). In the last two years since their implementation, the Review Rules have played a positive role in regulating the approval of airline operating licenses and in improving the hub’s collection and distribution functions. However, with changes in the domestic air transport development environment since this year’s epidemic and the continued deepening of civil aviation “delegation, control and service” reforms, the Civil Aviation Administration has decided to issue new regulations to rationally adjust national flight management policies.
Specifically, the “Notice” proposes to lift the maximum weekly volume limit of flights for approved flight segments. In accordance with market demand and the capacity of airports with high traffic, domestic routes are divided into approved routes and registered routes. . The approved routes refer to passenger routes involving Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou airports and connecting some busy domestic airports. There are currently 49 passenger routes. In this regard, Jin Junhao further stated: “Since the epidemic, the domestic air transport market has been severely affected. In order to better utilize the enthusiasm and autonomy of air transport companies, this adjustment has relaxed the limit. maximum weekly flight volume for approved flight segments. ” Based on compliance with aviation safety, accessibility and operational quality requirements, airlines can organize flight routes flexibly and autonomously. “
However, Jin Junhao also emphasized that while facilitating access, it takes into account the proper competition targeting between airlines and Daxing Airport’s transfer operation requirements. The new regulations also clarify that “the 2020-2021 winter and spring season will involve Shanghai and Guangzhou. Approved flight segments can request no more than 14 flights per week during each review, and for approved flight segments involving Beijing, they can request no more than 28 flights per week. Among them, Capital Airport can request no more than 14 flights per week. “
It is also worth noting that the “Notice” relaxes access restrictions at the three main airports involved in the secondary routes “Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou”. Jin Junhao introduced that, to help airlines explore potential markets and improve their core networks, and promote market recovery for small and medium-sized airports, the new policy stipulates: “Airlines request special registered routes that include direct flights from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to airports with an annual throughput of less than 1 million. It meets the access conditions of “Beijing, Shanghai-Guangzhou Airport involved in this route as the main base or the number of Beijing-Shanghai-Guangzhou Airport involved in this route has reached 15 points. “After the adjustment, the passenger flow in 2019 will be between 1 million and 2 million. The 32 airports in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou will not be restricted by the number of access points.
According to Wang Jiangmin, senior civil aviation economist, the relaxation of some restrictions will help to further harness the potential of the airline to develop routes, “especially conducive to strengthening links between some small and medium airports and central hub airports. For third tier cities, it is a great opportunity to develop local airline branches. At the same time, the adjustment has relaxed access restrictions to the routes of the Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou airports branches, or will further drive the transfer of these large cities to small and medium-sized cities Promote product and route development related tourism ”. However, he also bluntly said that due to the impact of the epidemic, some tourists still have some concerns about travel. When choosing additional routes, airlines should conduct proper market research and preliminary data collection, “especially small and medium-sized airlines, The number of aircraft is relatively small. To avoid problems such as insufficient passenger load factor and waste of resources, we must do our best to open new routes. “
