The 2022 Spring Festival (January 17 to February 25) is halfway through. According to the data of Fei Chang Zhuan, civil aviation sent about 16.65 million passengers in the first 20 days of the Spring Festival. Although it has not yet returned to the pre-epidemic (2019) level, it has increased by 55.14% year-on-year compared with the 2021 Spring Festival. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Chengdu are still the hub cities for return routes. Qunar data shows that the number of tickets departing from these five cities has been growing rapidly since January 24, reaching a peak on January 29. Among them, as of January 31, Chengdu is the departure place with the largest number of tickets issued during the Spring Festival.
However, for people who work in Guangzhou and return to Zalantun City in Inner Mongolia for the New Year, the trip home is not cheap, and the average price of air tickets is as high as 7070 yuan. Returning to Shenzhen from Chengdu for the Chinese New Year is much cheaper, with an average of only 261 yuan per ticket. It is worth mentioning that although the average price of air tickets from the above 5 hub cities to Sanya and Haikou is more than 1,000 yuan, the enthusiasm of everyone to go to Hainan for the New Year does not seem to have declined. According to Qunar data, Hainan is the province with the largest total number of tickets issued by these five cities, followed by Sichuan, Chongqing, Guangdong and Yunnan.
The Civil Aviation Administration also said that during the Spring Festival holiday (January 31 to February 6), the guangzhou and Shenzhen routes between Chengdu and Chongqing, and the beijing, Shanghai and northeast China to and from Hainan routes are in strong demand, and the top five routes in terms of passenger traffic volume are "Beijing-Sanya", "Guangzhou-Chengdu", "Chengdu-Sanya", "Shanghai-Sanya" and "Guangzhou-Chongqing". in Beta
