中国航空业接到通知，在中国决定重新开放边境后，要为游客量激增做好准备

Xie Xingquan, the International Air Transport Association’s regional vice-president for North Asia, said China’s reopening was a welcome development and would have a “positive effect” on the industry in the Asia-Pacific region.

国际航空运输协会北亚区副总裁解兴权表示，中国重新开放是一个可喜的进展，将会对亚太地区的航空业产生“积极影响”。

The association is expecting to see the number of passengers reaching 70 per cent of the 2019 level next year, but Xie said China needed to be “well-prepared” to avoid disruption.

该协会预计，明年旅客数量将达到2019年水平的70%，但解兴权表示，中国需要“做好充分准备”，以避免航空旅行中断。

“What is needed next is to remove the need for pre-departure Covid-19 testing. It is also crucial for the entire aviation value chain in China to be well prepared and adequately resourced to handle the expected surge of air travellers, so as to avoid the travel disruptionsand problems seen elsewhere in the world when borders reopened,” he said.

他说：“接下来需要的是取消出发前核酸检测的需求。对于中国的整个航空价值链来说，做好充分准备并拥有充足的资源来应对预期的航空旅客激增的情况也是至关重要的。这样就可以避免出现世界其他地方在其边境重新开放时遇到的旅行中断问题。”
