The health code of Spring Festival travel is recognized by each other across the country
It is estimated that the passenger flow of the national railway transportation in spring will be reduced to 296 million person times
On the 15th, the national teleconference on Spring Festival travel was held. Lian Weiliang, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that at present, the COVID-19 epidemic is a global pandemic, and the local epidemic situation in China is a mixture of sporadic and locally clustered epidemic situations. The situation of epidemic prevention and control is severe and complex. In addition, with the reduction of passenger transport demand, it is expected that the pressure of commercial passenger transport will be reduced, and the contradiction of the Spring Festival transportation work will further shift from the supply of transport capacity to the prevention and control of epidemic diseases. The prevention and control of epidemic diseases should be put at the top of the Spring Festival transportation work.
In view of the problem of non mutual recognition of epidemic prevention health codes in some regions, Lian Weiliang said that during the Spring Festival travel, it is necessary to implement the unified policy and standard of epidemic prevention health codes, and the national mutual recognition and one code access. At present, the corresponding technical conditions for national health code mutual recognition have been met. If some regions have upgraded the prevention and control measures due to the epidemic situation, and there is a special need not to recognize the health codes of other regions, they must first report to the Joint Prevention and Control Office of the State Council and the special team for epidemic prevention and control during the Spring Festival transportation, and can only be implemented after approval. To achieve scientific prevention and control, precise prevention and control, not excessive prevention and control.
Li Wenxin, deputy general manager of the State Railway Group Co., Ltd., introduced that ticket pre-sales before the Spring Festival this year had dropped by nearly 60% compared with the same period of previous years, and it was expected that the passenger flow of the national railway during the Spring Festival would be reduced to 296 million person times. In order to facilitate passengers to arrange travel according to the epidemic prevention and control policy, the pre-sale period of railway tickets has been adjusted to 15 days since January 29, and the free refund period has been adjusted to 8 days accordingly. In addition, it will also extend the ticket selling service time of the railway 12306 website and the processing time of online ticket refund business.
In addition, Liu Xiaoming, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Transport, said that we should adhere to the principle of "people should be on the same footing" and strictly prevent and control the epidemic situation of imported cold chain logistics and inbound personnel; Care and help key passengers, open channels without health codes, and solve the difficulties of the elderly in using intelligent technology in travel.
