[Explanation] On September 7, after 228 days, the Northern Branch of China Southern Airlines officially resumed the round-trip flight from Shenyang to Wuhan.

As the two captains and flight attendants for the first flight of the resumption of flight, they were all crew members who had escorted Liaoning to support the Hubei medical team at the beginning of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Wuhan. Flying is very different to them.

  [Explanation] On the second day of the Lunar New Year's Day on January 26, the first batch of medical support teams from Liaoning rushed to Wuhan. The Northern Branch of China Southern Airlines sent a chartered plane to perform the escort mission. Jiao Xu was the second captain of this chartered plane.

On April 1, it was a chartered plane driven by Wang Xinqi to take home the last batch of medical personnel from the Liaoning Support Hubei Medical Team.

After that, the two went to Wuhan again until today and saw the Tianhe International Airport, which was restored to its former prosperity.

  I remember that the last time I went to Wuhan was when we sent our medical team there, I saw that the entire terminal building was almost empty and there were no people.

Then at Wuhan Airport, there were rows of planes docked, and they were all waiting. It felt like a lonely airport, but it was different this time.

Indeed, when we were docked on the gallery bridge, we saw people coming and going in the terminal building, seeing one plane after another on the runway, going up and down, the feeling, the excitement, it’s hard to express .

  Coming here again, I feel a lot of emotion, especially seeing that our Wuhan Airport has fully resumed navigation, and everything we have is very orderly. When it is prosperous, I feel particularly moved, especially my first time. When I contacted the Wuhan Tower, I felt that everything was so familiar and familiar, and I wish everything would get better and better here.

  [Explanation] Like the two captains, Li Shan, the flight attendant, has performed pick-up and drop-off missions many times.

On the plane, she witnessed the dignity and perseverance of farewell, the excitement and glory of returning safely, and she felt the innocent feelings of the medical staff against the wind, and the strength of fighting the epidemic.

Since then, the deeply infected Li Shan has also been more determined in the cabin, bringing peace of mind to passengers, and also bringing confidence to colleagues as a flight attendant.

  I have flown many flights. Not only did I fly this Wuhan flight, but also transported medical staff and picked them up, so today I also took on the mission of the first flight.

Throughout the flight during this period (epidemic), I felt the strength of China.

So during today’s flight, I also talked to many passengers and our flight attendants. During this epidemic, although we were not in the front line, we also reflected in the flight delivery process. A lot of touching stories.

  [Explanation] From January 26 to April 1, China Southern Airlines North Branch guaranteed 25 charter flights 13 times, transporting 3,038 Liaoning medical team members and related staff between Shenyang-Wuhan and Shenyang-Xiangyang. Medical supplies 73 tons.

A total of 128 crew members participated.
