The high or low bridge dependency rate of flights is related to the experience and more importantly, the economy
2023-06-09
Recently, the Civil Aviation Administration of China held a special rectification kick-off meeting, focusing on 13 Airline hub in ten major international aviation hub cities, to carry out special rectification work to improve the bridge proximity rate of flight near stands for 41 ten million level airports nationwide. As the name suggests, increasing the number of flights connecting to the bridge means increasing the number of times flights can connect to the bridge, allowing passengers to board and disembark from the plane through the bridge. Passengers are often more willing to choose to board and disembark from the aircraft through a bridge compared to boarding and disembarking from the distant aircraft through a shuttle bus. The "one-day tour of the airport" and other online roast are the vivid expressions of passengers who must take the shuttle bus when encountering a remote flight. Due to apron traffic safety management, shuttle buses have set lower maximum speed limits and access permissions, and must strictly follow the driving route. It is strictly prohibited to rush, walk with, or follow aircraft. This means that taking a shuttle bus to and from the terminal and distant aircraft stands will take more time, and passengers often feel that time is long in narrow, crowded and enclosed shuttle buses. In addition, due to the airport's service delivery capacity, when encountering weather conditions such as rain, snow, and strong winds, passengers traveling to and from most remote aircraft positions will experience no shelter boarding, which will also greatly reduce the passenger boarding experience. Whether it is individual tourism or business travel, the transportation hub of a city often represents the facade of the city. The first impression of tourists upon arrival will to some extent affect their subsequent activities in the city; The final impression of a passenger when leaving can also affect their subsequent liking for a city. Regardless of the purpose for which passengers take a flight to or from a city, improving their flight experience as much as possible will be a silent manifestation of urban service. The vast majority of the cities with 41 million level airports in China have similar levels of development and economic strength. How to attract more population and capital inflows to promote long-term economic development is precisely the level of service that is reflected in these details. As service providers, the transportation industry market entities have a profound understanding of this. The two major market entities of long-distance transportation both focus on transportation between key cities and provide higher quality services. Domestic airlines will set some routes between tens of millions of airports as key routes and business express routes, arrange for wide body aircraft to fly, and set up specialized check-in counters, security checkpoints, and reserve the nearest boarding gate to shorten passengers' boarding time; The railway will also arrange Fuxing intelligent Multiple unit with better performance on lines such as Beijing Shanghai passenger dedicated line, and will run "benchmark cars" with shorter running time only stopping at major stations. The purpose of civil aviation and railways doing this is to enhance the passenger experience and thereby enhance their ability to attract customers. Market entities can only seek greater development by having a keen understanding of market changes and improving their service levels. As an urban transportation hub, airports are both important infrastructure and market entities. For the civil aviation industry, safety must be the top priority, but service awareness is also essential. There are various factors involved in the arrangement of distant flight slots, resulting in an increase in the number of flights relying on bridges. What is needed is the full cooperation of the airport, airlines, and civil aviation management departments, all of which are indispensable. In the long run, improving the bridge to bridge ratio of flights is not contradictory to reducing operating costs for airlines, but can also improve the efficiency of airport operation and management
