On the afternoon of the 22nd, the State Council Information Office held a press conference on the development achievements of the "13th Five-Year Plan" of transportation.
Feng Zhenglin introduced at the meeting that the "13th Five-Year Plan" is an extremely extraordinary and important five years for the development of civil aviation.
Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, the civil aviation industry has witnessed rapid growth in transportation scale, overall stability in safety, steadily improved service quality, and significantly enhanced support capabilities, deepened reforms in an all-round way, and the overall development of the industry is in line with planning expectations. Its comprehensive strength is at the forefront of international civil aviation , Is working hard to realize the leap from a major air transport country to a powerful air transport country.
One is the rapid growth of transportation scale.
During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, despite the increasing downward pressure on the domestic economy, China's civil aviation continued to maintain a relatively rapid development speed.
From 2015 to 2019, the average annual growth of the total turnover of civil aviation transportation, passenger transportation, and cargo and mail transportation reached 11%, 10.7% and 4.6% respectively.
China's civil aviation transportation scale has been ranked second in the world for 15 consecutive years, and the gap with the first place has been narrowed year by year.
Especially since the beginning of this year, when the new crown pneumonia epidemic has had a huge impact on the global civil aviation industry, China's civil aviation took the lead in the world to bottom out. In September, the total transportation turnover, passenger transportation, and cargo and mail transportation of the entire industry have recovered to In the same period last year, 76.3%, 87.5%, 96.4%.
Among them, the total domestic air transport turnover and passenger traffic have recovered to 96.9% and 98% of the same period last year.
Second, the accessibility of the route network has been greatly improved.
As of 2019, there are 234 domestic cities, 4568 domestic routes (including 111 Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan routes); 167 cities in 65 countries and 953 international routes.
my country has signed bilateral air transport agreements with 127 countries or regions.
To serve the country’s “One Belt One Road” construction goal, bilateral intergovernmental air transport agreements have been signed with 96 countries along the “Belt and Road” route, and 54 of them maintain regular passenger and cargo flights.
Third, the industry's safety level continues to maintain the world's leading position.
As of the end of September this year, national transport aviation has been flying safely for 121 months and 86.69 million hours, and has ensured air defense safety for 18 consecutive years.
Judging from the five-year rolling value of the major accident rate per million flight hours of transportation aviation, China's civil aviation is 0, the world average is 0.088, and the safety level of China's civil aviation is at the forefront of the world.
Fourth, infrastructure support capabilities have been significantly enhanced.
Since the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan", in accordance with the principle of moderate advancement, efforts have been made to improve the functions of international and regional hub airports, vigorously increase the capacity of large airports, and enhance the support capabilities of small and medium airports. The three world-class airport clusters in Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, 10 major international aviation hubs such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Xi'an, 29 regional hubs and non-hub transportation airports have extensive coverage and reasonable distribution , The modern airport system with complete functions and intensive environmental protection has strongly supported the rapid growth of air transportation demand.
The completion and commissioning of Beijing Daxing International Airport in 2019 has become a new source of power for national development, providing a new engine for the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and the construction of Xiongan New Area.
During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, 15 large and medium-sized hub airport expansion projects including Shanghai Pudong were completed and put into production. The reconstruction and expansion projects of Chengdu Tianfu, Qingdao New Airport and Guiyang Airport were progressing steadily, and my country's first Hubei Ezhou Airport with a cargo function as its main function Construction is underway, and the airport network has been continuously improved, with a significant increase in support capabilities.
At present, there are 39 airports in my country with a passenger throughput of tens of millions, of which 11 are 30 million.
It is estimated that by the end of the 13th Five-Year Plan, the number of transportation airports across the country will increase to 241.
Newly added 41 runways, 5.88 million square meters of terminal buildings, and 2264 aircraft seats, with an additional capacity of about 400 million passengers, with a total capacity of 1.4 billion passengers; 43 new and relocated airports have been completed, and the number of general airports has reached 313 More than the number of transport airports.
Fifth, the quality of transportation services has been steadily improved.
During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, the Civil Aviation Administration has vigorously improved the normality of flights. The flight normality rate has increased significantly from 67% at the end of the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period to 81.6% in 2019, exceeding 80% for two consecutive years. Reach 87.04%.
We have carried out special service quality actions for five consecutive years, focusing on the implementation of a "paperless" flight and baggage tracking system, opened 12326 supervision and complaint calls, and basically achieved "same quality and same price in the same city" for airport catering, and implemented stepped fees for ticket refunds and changes In order to create a better travel experience and service quality for passengers, the “Administrative Measures for Air Transport for Disabled Persons” was issued to achieve full coverage of “priority passages for military personnel in accordance with the law”, and to open air transport green passages for human organ donations.
Sixth, deepen the reform and advance in an all-round way.
During the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, we adhere to the problem-oriented approach, promote development through reform, and promote the in-depth development of industry reforms.
10 areas, 40 special reform tasks, and 158 reform measures have been determined, forming a "1+10+N" overall framework for deepening civil aviation reform.
Breakthroughs have been made in some important areas and key links such as the reform of freight rates, the reform of the industry regulatory model, the reconstruction of the general aviation regulatory system, and the reform of the aviation enterprise shareholding system.
Since the 13th Five-Year Plan, we have arranged a total of 1,544 reform tasks, and the completion rate of reform tasks from 2017 to 2019 reached 93.6%, 94.5% and 91.3% respectively.
At present, various reforms of civil aviation are still advancing as a whole, the industry’s administrative management system and mechanisms have been further improved, public service functions have been further strengthened, and administrative efficiency, supervision and legalization have been accelerated.
Feng Zhenglin pointed out that while seeing the achievements in the 13th Five-Year Plan, we are also fully aware that there are still some shortcomings in the high-quality development of civil aviation, and there is still a gap between the requirements of the central government and the expectations of the people.
"At present, we are compiling civil aviation's development plan for the 14th Five-Year Plan and guidance on civil aviation reform during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. China's civil aviation will firmly hold the bottom line of safety and regard the construction of smart civil aviation as the key to civil aviation construction during the 14th Five-Year Plan. Develop the main line, comprehensively improve the ability to guarantee resources, create a longer safety cycle, vigorously improve service quality, and better meet the people’s diversified aviation travel needs and modern aviation logistics development needs, in order to build a domestic The new development pattern of the international double-circulation mutual promotion has made the contribution of civil aviation." Feng Zhenglin said.
