The reporter learned from the National Civil Aviation Work Conference held on the 9th that in 2024, the scale of civil aviation transportation production will reach a new high, and the quality and efficiency will be further improved. The civil aviation industry completed a total transportation turnover of 148.52 billion ton kilometers, 730 million passenger trips, and 8.982 million tons of cargo and mail transportation throughout the year, an increase of 25%, 17.9%, and 22.1% year-on-year, and an increase of 14.8%, 10.6%, and 19.3% respectively compared to 2019. In 2024, civil aviation will actively serve the opening up to the outside world, with international passenger flights increasing to 6400 per week, returning to 84% of pre pandemic levels, and international freight and mail transport volume increasing by 29.3% year-on-year. 19 new "the Belt and Road" co constructed national waypoints were added, and the passenger traffic volume from China to Central Asia, West Asia and Europe exceeded the level of 2019, with an increase of 152.4%, 49.5% and 25.7% respectively. Since 2024, civil aviation has continued to optimize the airworthiness certification of C919 and C909 aircraft after certification, ensuring the safe operation of domestically produced civil aircraft. At present, the safe operation of C909 has exceeded 500000 hours, and C919 has transported over 1 million passengers. Domestic aircraft have entered a new stage of large-scale development and multi-user operation. The relevant person in charge of the Civil Aviation Administration of China stated that while expanding the scale of transportation, it is necessary to further enhance the comprehensive benefits of development. By 2025, it is expected to achieve a total transportation turnover of 161 billion ton kilometers, a passenger transportation volume of 780 million people, and a cargo and mail transportation volume of 9.5 million tons. The next step is to actively explore the market and improve operational quality. Optimize the quality of domestic aviation express lines and deepen the implementation of the "trunk support, full network connection" air transportation network service system. Accelerate the resumption of international flights and strive to restore the number of international flights to over 90% of pre pandemic levels. Seize the opportunity of comprehensively relaxing and optimizing the visa free transit policy, and actively create an international transit market. Safely promote air rail intermodal transportation and effectively expand the radiation range of the aviation market. Explore and promote basic aviation services to better serve the travel needs of people in remote areas. (New Society)
