China'S Entry And Exit Control Is Waiting For "New Normal" For 15 Foreign Airlines Resuming Flights.

Zhou Yun finally returned home. From January 23rd to June 28th, her Spring Festival travel accident became a long stay in the United States. Zhou Yun told the twenty-first Century economic report that she had seen countless black agents in the two months to buy her return ticket. Fortunately, with the increase of international flights, he returned to Shanghai in late June and bought some tickets, so that only four families could return to Hong Kong.

Loosening of the "five one" policy

Affected by the international epidemic, China has adopted the "five one" policy to inbound international flights to prevent foreign imports. After March 29, 2020 to June 1st, China's largest daily international flight plan is only 134. With the improvement of the epidemic situation and the strong demand of the market, the number of international flights will be expanded to 407 classes a day in June.

According to the twenty-first Century economic report data obtained from Fei you technology, in June, the mainland China's shipping division carried out 1710 international flights, and the International Aviation Division implemented 803 international flights. As more and more foreign airlines resume their flights, the volume of international flights is expected to pick up again. According to the statistics of reporters, as of the end of June, 15 foreign airlines had planned to resume the Chinese passenger transport routes. According to the plan, 132 new international flights could be added in July.

Let Zhou Yun stay in the US China airline for so long, and ushered in the two returned American Airlines in July. At the end of January this year, the United States took the lead in partial suspension of flights to China. In June 30th, it officially announced the resumption of flights from San Francisco to Shanghai, China (Pudong, Seoul, Sichuan Airport) from July 8th. The flight was held 2 times a week, and was carried by Boeing 777-300ER. In addition, United Airlines will also restart flights to Hongkong, China (after stopping Hongkong to fly to Singapore), the specific restart time has not yet been announced.

Another US carrier Delta Airlines recovered earlier and resumed the Seattle Shanghai Pudong route in June 25th. The airline stops at Seoul Airport and operates two shifts a week. Since July, Delta Airlines has resumed two routes in Seattle, Shanghai, Pudong and Detroit Shanghai Pudong.

According to incomplete statistics, Air France, New Zealand airlines, Singapore Airlines, Sheng an Airlines, Singapore cool air, Lufthansa, Virgin Atlantic, Korean air, Asiana, Ana, Japan Air and Ethiopia airlines also have flight plans.

Lin Zhijie, a civil aviation expert, said that the international routes were becoming more and more open from 3 and April, including the adjustment of the "five one" policy after June, and the resumption of flights by foreign airlines is a big trend. Under the circumstances of controllable epidemic situation, there will be more and more international contacts.

Reporters also noted that recently, many countries around the world have opened their borders to welcome foreign business people or tourists. Such as Maldives, Tunisia, Turkey, Sri Lanka, Egypt and Dubai. Some countries recognize China's epidemic prevention very much, including China in the first batch of open list.

The 27 countries of the European Union jointly issued the list of countries to re open their external borders in July 1st, and 14 countries were allowed to pass. China has also been granted temporary approval outside the 14 countries, but only if China allows EU travelers to enter the country, will the EU be open to Chinese travelers. Reciprocity is the condition for China to be included in this list.

In July 1st, it was also reported that the Japanese government had negotiated that it would negotiate with China and South Korea as soon as possible, and it would negotiate to ease the entry and exit restrictions in order to resume business contacts and epidemic prevention conditions. Thailand is also planning to relax its entry restrictions from July 1st and provide entry permits for flights carrying 11 categories of passengers. These include countries and regions that have signed special bilateral agreements in mainland China and Hongkong, China. However, Thailand currently has restrictions on the status of Chinese immigration personnel, which are restricted to business people. The government of Thailand is discussing the next step to restore the international tourism plan. It is estimated that the time of Thailand's re opening of inbound tourism will advance from 9 to October to August.

Epidemic prevention "new normal"

With more and more countries opening their entry restrictions to China, the demand for business travel and travel abroad will gradually increase. It is in view of this prospect that more and more airlines plan to resume operation.

Qi Qi, a professor at Career Academy in Guangzhou, told reporters that in order to resume work and resume production, the new version of the "five one" policy was in order to restore international flights in an orderly way. However, it is too early to directly judge the relaxation of immigration control. At present, the epidemic situation in Europe is basically controlled, but the situation in European Union countries is different. If the European Union opens its borders to each other, it will have conditions for China's equal opening up. "There will be an increase in the number of short-term entry and exit, depending on the overall situation of the global epidemic control and the progress of vaccine development." Qi Qi said.

As international flights continue to increase and the number of entry and exit populations is expected to continue to grow, so will imported foreign cases. In June 11th, China Southern Airlines CZ392 found 17 passengers fresh crown virus nucleic acid positive in the flight from Dhaka to Guangzhou in Bangladesh. The Civil Aviation Authority issued the first "fuse instruction" to suspend the flight for 4 weeks. Then, in June 27th, 6 passengers of Sichuan airlines, Cairo and Chengdu, were tested positive for the new crown virus nucleic acid on the 3U8392 flight. The Civil Aviation Administration also implemented a flight fusing measure for Sichuan Airlines, and suspended the flight for 1 weeks.

Lin Zhijie believes that the prevention and control of the importation of disease depends mainly on four measures. The first is the voluntary declaration of passengers. The body temperature in the past two weeks is the basic measure. The second is the screening of airlines, including temperature measurement and the requirement of nucleic acid test reports. Lin Zhijie thinks that the civil aviation authority's fusing mechanism is also intended to encourage airlines to better guard against it. The third one is the isolation or acceptance capacity of the port. The fourth is the ability of nucleic acid detection to diagnose. "I think these four aspects of ability, we prevent the effect of input will also have a better guarantee." Lin Zhijie road.

Qi Qi believes that the national epidemic prevention plan is not a civil aviation individual combat, but a unified coordination and deployment under the joint defense joint control office. "This is a national action and a national capacity." Qi Qi believes that although the resumption of flights increases flights to bring more inbound tourists, the ability to prevent epidemic disease is improving and prepared in an orderly way. The first place of entry is also capable of facing possible risk exposure.

What is not good is that even if airlines resume their flights, governments will relax their entry and exit restrictions and will be reluctant to travel. Flying friend technology released in July 2nd, "July 2020 passenger travel willingness index analysis report" shows that, affected by the international epidemic situation, the willingness of domestic travelers to go abroad is still low, and the willingness to travel in July is even worse than that in June. International business trips and international travel trips are also in the doldrums.
