Lin Guoxian, Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Transportation, went to Songshan Airport to pay attention to the transportation situation. He was accompanied by the Director of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, He Shuping, Director of the Aviation Administration Department of the Ministry of Transportation, Han Zhenhua, and Taipei Airport Director Zheng Jianzhong. Lin Guoxian said that with this three-day holiday, the number of passengers returning home or traveling will increase. During the holiday, flights may still be subject to changes due to weather conditions. The Civil Aviation Administration has prepared a number of contingency measures in advance and asked airlines to increase manpower and, subject to capacity permission, flexibly operate additional flights or expand aircraft types as the situation permits. It also coordinated with the Airports Bureau and the Ministry of National Defense to assist with transportation in a timely manner to ensure the smooth return of passengers or travel. Today, the overall transportation situation is good.
Lin Guoxian reminded that the Civil Aviation Administration and Songshan Airport should pay close attention to weather conditions and strengthen publicity on the regulations on carrying mobile power supplies and lithium batteries to ensure flight safety and smooth transportation.
He Shuping said that in order to cope with the demand for travel during the holiday period, the Civil Aviation Administration has coordinated with airlines in advance to increase flights. From today to October 12, domestic routes are expected to provide about 1,318 flights and 101,000 seats. Among them, the three outlying island controlled routes of Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu will provide a total of 1,128 flights and 94,000 seats, hoping to meet the transportation needs of people returning home and traveling.
The Civil Aviation Administration of China reminds passengers who purchase tickets with "limited to the same flight on the same day" and "void overdue" usage restrictions that airlines will implement a "refund fee grading system" to make more efficient use of limited air transportation resources. If you are unable to take the original flight for some reason, you must notify the airline to cancel the reservation before the flight takes off, and go to the original ticketing office to handle the refund according to the original ticket regulations to protect your own rights and interests. In addition, flights to outlying islands are prone to changes due to weather conditions. Passengers are advised to pay attention to weather conditions, check the latest flight information, and check in at the airport early on the day of flight to ensure a smooth trip.
