Jin Junhao, deputy director of the Department of Transport of the Civil Aviation Administration, said on the 15th that the Mid Autumn Festival National Day holiday is approaching. Judging from the pre booking of air tickets, there is a strong demand for tourists to travel during the holiday, visit relatives and friends, and it is expected that more than 21 million passengers will travel by air.

"Since this year, the Civil Aviation Administration has organized a safe and orderly recovery of the air transport market, and the industry's comprehensive support capacity has been continuously improved, making operational support preparations for passenger travel during the subsequent Mid Autumn Festival National Day holiday." Jin Jun said at the daily press conference of the Civil Aviation Administration that during the holiday period, it is expected to guarantee 137000 flights. Among them, about 14000 domestic passenger flights are guaranteed daily and 1.96 million domestic passengers are transported, up 18% and 17% respectively from the National Day holiday in 2019.

In terms of the domestic market, the Civil Aviation Administration encourages airlines to increase their investment in transport capacity by working overtime and changing large aircraft types on popular routes during holidays, supports airlines to actively expand the third and fourth tier aviation markets, and continues to promote the construction of the "trunk branch connectivity, full network connectivity" air transport network system to meet the travel needs of the vast number of passengers.

In the international market, all parties actively promoted the smooth and orderly recovery of international passenger flights. At present, the number of countries and regions open to passenger flights has recovered to nearly 90% in 2019. CAAC supports Chinese and foreign airlines to increase their input in the international air transport market and actively resume international flights. During the holidays, the application for temporary flights proposed by the airline will be approved in time to ensure adequate capacity arrangements.

In addition, CAAC will continue to urge airlines, airports and other support units to optimize their support processes and provide convenient and comfortable travel services. When encountering abnormal flight conditions, we will urge relevant parties to do a good job in information notification, ticket return and ticket change and other services, improve customer service telephone connection rate, and respond to passengers' demands in a timely manner.
