Cultivate new opportunities in the crisis And open a new situation in the midst of changes

Since the beginning of this year, in the face of severe and complex epidemic prevention and control situation at home and abroad, Jilin Airport Group has paid close attention to the dynamics of the aviation market while doing a good job in normalizing the epidemic prevention and control work, and actively promoted the rapid recovery of the aviation market in Jilin Province. The domestic aviation market situation in the post-epidemic era is changing rapidly, and Jilin Airport Group has effectively promoted the recovery of the aviation market at Changchun Airport by continuously increasing the development of the aviation market, continuously optimizing the route time network, and making up for the shortcomings of airspace resources. In the summer and winter seasons of 2021, the weekly planned flight volume growth rate of Changchun Airport will continue to rank among the top in the northeast region. This year's winter season, Changchun Airport added new waypoints such as Qionghai, Xinzhou, Liuzhou and Wuhu, restored chifeng, Baotou, Xiangyang, Xishuangbanna and Zhanjiang, and encrypted flights to Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other cities. After the change of season, Changchun Airport has 24 flights to Shanghai, 14 flights to Beijing, 12 flights to Guangzhou and Shenzhen, 10 flights to Chengdu, 9 flights each to Nanjing, Qingdao and Sanya, and 8 flights each to Hangzhou and Jinan, with a total of 30 airlines operating 140 routes and 70 domestic and foreign cities. In addition, under the attention and support of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government and the care and guidance of the Northeast Regional Administration of Civil Aviation, the airport's peak hour capacity has been increased to 30 flights per hour, which has reserved airspace and time resources for the future development of Changchun Airport.

Continue to deepen strategic cooperation "building a nest and attracting phoenixes" has highlighted its results

In recent years, Jilin Airport Group has always attached importance to strategic cooperation with airlines, continued to practice the "four services", actively "built a nest and attracted phoenixes", and worked with airlines to jointly promote the economic and social development of Jilin Province. Since the beginning of this year, the Jilin Provincial Government has signed cooperation framework agreements with China Airlines and China Eastern Airlines Group, and under the impetus of the Northeast Regional Administration of Civil Aviation, the four major airport groups in Northeast China have signed strategic cooperation agreements with Sichuan Airlines Group. This is a new breakthrough in the strategic cooperation between Jilin Airport Group and airlines after Qingdao Airlines and Changlong Airlines. At the same time, Jilin Airport Group firmly grasps the opportunity of changing seasons, continuously implements and expands the strategic cooperation results with the agreed airlines, and comprehensively strengthens cooperation with airlines in terms of introducing on-site transportation capacity, steadily increasing the market share of non-base airlines, and enriching the form of aviation marketing. This year's winter season, Changchun Airport passenger planned to stop 47 aircraft, an increase of 7 aircraft year-on-year and 5 aircraft month-on-month. Among the strategic cooperation airlines, China Eastern Airlines (including Shanghai Airlines) has 9 aircraft, 7 Changlong Airlines, 5 Qingdao Airlines and 3 international airlines. Among them, the weekly planned flight volume of China Eastern Airlines, Changlong Airlines and Qingdao Airlines has increased by more than 20% year-on-year, and it has initially met the conditions of "basing itself on Changchun and radiating northeast China" aviation regional distribution center. This not only lays a solid foundation for Changchun Airport to achieve the goal of setting up a second and third base airline, but also takes a step forward for Changchun Airport to achieve a benign development pattern with sufficient capacity allocation, full utilization of resources at all times, reasonable aircraft structure and balanced market share, and the results of strategic cooperation are further highlighted.

Enrich the marketing "combination fist" to deeply promote the integration of the air travel market

In the post-pandemic era, travelers have become more rational.
